Stand By Me
John Lennon · Other Songs - John Lennon
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.
And darling, darling stand by me.
Oh now now! 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 heee....yea!
Whenever your in trouble won't you stand by me.
Ohh now now! Stand by me.
Oh stand by me.
Stand by me.
Stand by me.
And darling, darling stand by me......heee!
Stand by me.
Oh stand by me.
Stand by me.
Stand by me.......heeeeeeheeeeeeeeeee!
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.
And darling, darling stand by me.
Oh now now! 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 heee....yea!
Whenever your in trouble won't you stand by me.
Ohh now now! Stand by me.
Oh stand by me.
Stand by me.
Stand by me.
And darling, darling stand by me......heee!
Stand by me.
Oh stand by me.
Stand by me.
Stand by me.......heeeeeeheeeeeeeeeee!
