When the night has come and the land is dark
And the moon is the only, only light we see
No I won't be afraid, no no no no no no I won't be afraid
Just as long, just as long, just as long as you stand by meMy darlin', darlin'
Whenever I'm in trouble darling won't you stand
I need just a little helping hand
And darling, darling won't you stand by meIf the sky we look upon should tumble and fall
All the mountains may crumble, may crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry and no no no no I won't shed no tears
Just as long, just as long, just as long as you stand by meMy darlin', darlin', I said I need somebody baby
I need just a little helping hand
Need some one to come pick me up and make you stand by me
Come on, come on my baby, yeah
My, my, my, my, my baby, oh oh
Come on, come on and stand, stand by me
