Lyrics:
When the night has come, and the way is dark,
And that moon is the only light you see.
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as the people come and stand by me.
And darlin' darlin' stand by me, oh stand by me,
Oh stand by, stand by me.
If the sky that we look upon
Well should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea.
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't she'd a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
And darling, darling stand by me, oh stand by me,
Oh stand by, stand by me.
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me,
Oh stand by me, oh stand by, stand by me.
