Stand By Me
8D TUNES Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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
No, I won′t
Be afraid
Just as long
As you stand
Stand by me

And darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain
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

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me, yeah

Whenever you′re in trouble
Won't you stand by me?
Oh, now, now, 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 8D TUNES's song Stand By Me are about the importance of having someone by your side in times of darkness and uncertainty. The first verse paints a picture of a dark and uncertain night, where the only source of light is the moon. Despite this darkness, the singer is not afraid, as long as they have someone standing by their side. This is reiterated in the chorus, where the singer pleads for their loved one to stand by them. The second verse takes this idea even further, suggesting that even if the sky falls or the mountain crumbles, the singer will not be afraid or shed a tear, as long as their loved one is there for them.


Overall, the song is very optimistic and reassuring, conveying the message that no matter how tough things get, having someone by your side can make all the difference. The use of repetition in the chorus helps to emphasize this message, as the phrase "stand by me" is repeated multiple times, almost like a mantra. The use of the word "darling" also adds an element of tenderness and love to the song, suggesting that the singer's loved one is more than just a friend or a partner - they are a true source of strength and support.


Line by Line Meaning

When the night has come
At night time, when darkness prevails


And the land is dark
When everything around is pitch black


And the moon
When the only source of light is the moon


Is the only
When there's no other


Light we’ll see
What little light is visible is only the moon


No, I won't
I refuse to


Be afraid
To cower or tremble with fear


Just as long
As long as


As you stand
As you keep supporting me


Stand by me
Be there with me through thick and thin


And darling, darling, stand by me
My love, please stand by me


Oh, now, now, stand by me
I need you to be by my side now


If the sky that we look upon
In case the sky we gaze upon


Should tumble and fall
Collapses and descends


And the mountain
And if the highest peak


Should crumble to the sea
Is reduced to rubble and falls into the water


I won't cry
I shall not weep


No, I won't shed a tear
I shall not let a single drop of tear fall


Whenever you′re in trouble
Every time you're in distress


Won't you stand by me?
Please, won't you be there for me?


Darling, darling, stand by me
Beloved, please support me


Stand by me, yeah
Be by my side, yes

Ficou muito legal, muito mesmo. Eu sempre gostei dessa música e me lembra minha melhor amiga, sempre. Sabe naqueles momentos em que você precisa falar com aquela pessoa que é importante para você? Pronto são nesses momentos em que eu preciso dessa música, dessa pessoa que para mim é muito especial. Essa trilha sonora ilustra muito nossa amizade, tenho muito medo que um dia essa amizade acabe, mas até lá estaremos nós sempre muito unidos.

You're in an 60s movie. You met the love of your life in the school hallway wearing a cute dress, you stared at eachother as people walked the hallways. She finally smiled at you when the bell rang

you met her again at a drive in and she asked you out
