Stand By Me
Four The Cause 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 darlin' darlin' 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
Or 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 darlin' darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me

Darlin' darlin' stand by me
Oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble just stand by me




Oh stand by me
Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me

Even if the sky were to fall or the mountains crumble, the singer would remain strong and not shed a tear, as long as their companion stands with them.


Line by Line Meaning

When the night has come
Even when it's dark and scary at night


And the land is dark
And everything around us is pitch black


And the moon is the only light we'll see
And the only light source we have is the moon


No I won't be afraid
I won't feel scared


Oh I won't be afraid
I won't feel frightened


Just as long as you stand, stand by me
As long as you remain beside me


So darlin' darlin' stand by me
My love, please don't leave my side


If the sky that we look upon
Even if the sky above us


Should tumble and fall
Should suddenly collapse


Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
Or the towering mountain falls into the ocean


I won't cry, I won't cry
I won't shed a tear


No I won't shed a tear
I won't cry


Just as long as you stand, stand by me
As long as you remain beside me


And darlin' darlin' stand by me
My dear, please stay beside me


Whenever you're in trouble just stand by me
Whenever you're facing difficulties or problems, please stay with me


Oh stand by me
Please stay beside me


Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me
Oh may you stand by me now and forever
