Ben E King, 1961
1. 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 afraid / Oh I won't be afraid / Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
So darling, darling stand by me / Oh, stand by me / Oh stand. stand by me, stand by me.
2. If the sky that we look upon / Should tumble and fall / or the mountain 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.
So darling, darling ...
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me / Oh, stand by me / Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darling, darling stand by me / Stand by me / Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me.
