Stand By Me
Embracing Love's Resilience: Stand By Me with Ben E. King
Lyrics
When the night has come
Expressing the arrival of night.
And the land is dark
Describing a dark land.
And the moon is the only light we'll see
Highlighting the moon as the sole source of light.
No, I won't be afraid
Declaring the absence of fear.
Oh, I won't be afraid
Reaffirming the lack of fear.
Just as long as you stand
Emphasizing the importance of a companion standing by.
Stand by me
Directly requesting someone to stand by.
So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Addressing a loved one and urging them to stand by.
Oh, stand by me
Reiterating the request for support.
Oh, stand
Continuing the plea for standing together.
Stand by me, stand by me
Affirming the need for ongoing support.
If the sky that we look upon
Contemplating potential challenges in the sky.
Should tumble and fall
Imagining a scenario of upheaval.
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
Extending the imagery to a crumbling mountain.
I won't cry, I won't cry
Expressing emotional strength in adversity.
No, I won't shed a tear
Asserting a commitment not to cry or shed tears.
Just as long as you stand
Reiterating the importance of the companion's presence.
Stand by me
Reinforcing the idea of standing together.
And darlin', darlin', stand by me
Addressing the loved one again and urging them to stand by.
Oh, stand by me
Repeating the request for support.
Oh, stand now
Emphasizing the act of standing together.
Stand by me, stand by me
Affirming the need for ongoing support.
And darlin', darlin', stand by me
Reiterating the plea for the loved one to stand by.
Oh, stand by me
Again, requesting the companion to stand by.
Oh, stand now
Repeating the call for standing together.
Stand by me, stand by me
Affirming the need for ongoing support.
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Asking for support during times of trouble.
Oh, stand by me
Reiterating the plea for standing by during challenges.
Won't you stand by
Concluding with a final request for companionship.
