King) 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 by me Darlin’, stand by me Won’t you stand by me If you’re in need, won’t you stand, stand by me And if the sky we look upon Should ever crumble and fall And the mountains should fall to the sea No I won’t be afraid, no I won’t shed a tear Just as long, just as long as you stand by me Darlin’, stand by me Won’t you stand by me If you’re in need, won’t you stand, stand by me Darlin’, stand by me Won’t you stand by me If you’re in need, won’t you stand by me Darlin’, stand by me Won’t you stand by me If you’re in need, won’t you stand, stand by me...
