Lyrics

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

so darlin', darlin' stand by me
oh, stand by me
oh, stand, now stand, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
should tumble and fall
or the mountain should crumble in 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

darlin' darlin' stand by me
oh stand by me
oh stand, now stand, stand by me

darlin' darlin' stand by me
oh stand by me
oh stand, just stand, stand by me

darlin' darlin' stand by me
oh stand by me
when ever your in trouble
just stand, stand by me

A great classic... Stand By Me. This is a nice "take" on a timeless classic that's been performed/recorded in a multitude of ways. This is an interesting juxtaposition of a vocalist that has a great voice for "disney-esque songs" and/or religious hymns. That said, I can see this being a very effective accompaniment in the proper setting... movie, stage, etc. Overall, nice job on this.

Nice cover of an old classic. Song stands on it's own merit

you sang a cover song titled stand by me. a Motown song from the 60's. loved the song. you did well with the vocals.
