Stand By Me – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Well, the night has come and the land is dark

And the moon is the only light we'll see

No, I won't be afraid, no, I won't be afraid

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

Darling, darling, stand by me, oh, stand by me

Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me

And when the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall

And the mountains should crumble to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

Darling, darling, stand by me, oh, stand by me

Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me
