(reggae)
WHEN THE NIGHT HAS COME
AND THE LAND IS DARK
AND THE MOON IS THE ONLY LIGHT WE'LL SEE
NO I WON'T BE AFFRAID
OH I WON'T BE AFRAID
JUST AS LONG AS YOU STAND BY ME
SO DARLIN' DARLIN' STAND BY ME
OH STAND BY ME
OH STAND BY ME STAND BY ME
IF THE SKY THAT WE LOOP UPON
SHOULD TUMBLE AND FALL
OR THE MOUTAIN 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 BY ME
WHENEVER YOU' RE IN TROUBLE
JUST STAND BY ME
OH STAND BY ME
OH STAND NOW OH STAND STAND BY ...
