Lyrics: Jesse Winchester. Love Filling Station. It's a Shame About Him.

When the night has come and the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
Well, I won't be afraid, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand by me

And darling, darling
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
And the mountains would crumble to the sea
Well I won't, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand by me

And darling, darling
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
