Stand By Me
Bruno Camurati 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
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

If The Sky That We Look Upon
Should Tumble And Fall
All 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

And Darling, Darling
Stand By Me, Oh Stand By Me
Oh Stand Now, Stand By Me
Stand By Me

So Darling, Darling
Stand By Me, Oh Stand By Me
Oh Stand Now, Stand By Me, Stand By Me
Whenever You're In Trouble Won't You Stand By Me

Oh Stand By Me, Oh Won't You Stand Now, Stand
Stand By Me
