Stand By Me
The Church-Brothers 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.

So, darling, darling,
Stand by me,
Oh, stand by me.
Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me.

If the sea that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain.
Should crumble in 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.

So, darling, darling,
Stand by me,




Oh, stand by me.
Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me.
