Lady GaGa᠀ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we 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
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
In Lady GaGa's rendition of "Stand By Me," the message is one of support and companionship. The lyrics describe a place of darkness and uncertainty, where the only source of light is the moon. Despite these conditions, though, the singer refuses to be scared or to feel alone as long as she has someone who will stand by her.
As the song continues, the singer asks for assurance. She sings about a time when the sky might fall or the earth might shake, causing everything around them to crumble. Even in this extreme scenario, she still feels safe as long as she has someone to stand by her side.
In the final verse, the singer makes an overt plea for help. She asks whoever she's singing to, to stand by her whenever she is in trouble. At this point, the message becomes more direct, and the singer speaks directly to the one she wants by her side.
Overall, the song's message is one of companionship, support, and mutual aid. It offers a powerful sentiment to anyone struggling to find their way through darkness and uncertainty.

When the night has come
During dark times
And the land is dark
When everything around us seems bleak
And the moon is the only light we see
The only hope or guidance we have
No, I won't be afraid
I won't succumb to fear
No, I won't be afraid
I won't give in to my worries
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
I know I'll be okay as long as I have your support
And darling, darling, stand by me
Please stay with me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
I need you in this moment
Stand by me, stand by me
Be my strength and my comfort
If the sky that we look upon
If everything we know crumbles
Should tumble and fall
Should it all come crashing down
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
If everything we hold dear disappears
I won't cry, I won't cry
I won't break down
No, I won't shed a tear
I won't let myself be defeated
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
As long as I have you, I can persevere
Whenever you're in trouble
When you face your own difficult times
Won't you stand by me?
Will you lean on me too?
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Let me be there for you
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Together, let's be there for each other
Darling, darling, stand by me

Be my rock
Stand by me, stand by me
Always be there

I love how Lady Gaga sing this song... She is very talented and one of a kind singer. I cried when Michael Jackson died knowing how lucky those people who live in his time and had witnessed all of his God given talents, without thinking I have Lady Gaga of my own time. Indeed, I'll have this story to tell my children.

Lady Gaga’s voice is fricking amazing
@sproing000
It is. But if only she could cut all the BS out and stand like a real singer like Sting. She is too over her head. Sting is light years away from her not only by his performance but also as a person. He does not need any motorcycles, feathers or anything around him to show his quality. No need to show off. He is just good. Kind of tired of fake people.
