Stand By Me<\/b><\/p>\n
Did I say I love soulful (sometimes sad\/mournful) songs? Don’t get me wrong, I will listen to any song as long as it sounds good to me: pop, soul, jazz, etc. While I won’t go out of my way to listen to (heavy) metal (because of its “dark” connotations), I have actually heard one or two by chance whose beats were not bad at all.
\nI was helping clean out my Uncle’s study when I came across an audio cd containing about 15 number one songs from a decade or two ago including The Temptations “Papa was a rolling stone” and Ben King’s “Stand by me” which got me feeling … ah well, such is life I guess.<\/p>\n
Below are the lyrics of Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me.”
\nFor all those who currently walk alone not by design or choice:<\/p>\n
“Stand By Me”<\/b><\/p>\n
When the night has come
\nAnd the land is dark
\nAnd the moon is the only light we’ll see
\nNo I won’t be afraid
\nOh, I won’t be afraid
\nJust as long as you stand, stand by me<\/p>\n
So darling, darling
\nStand by me, oh stand by me
\nOh stand, stand by me
\nStand by me<\/p>\n
If the sky that we look upon
\nShould tumble and fall
\nAll the mountains should crumble to the sea
\nI won’t cry, I won’t cry
\nNo, I won’t shed a tear
\nJust as long as you stand, stand by me<\/p>\n
And darling, darling
\nStand by me, oh stand by me
\nOh stand now, stand by me
\nStand by me<\/p>\n
So darling, darling
\nStand by me, oh stand by me
\nOh stand now, stand by me, stand by me
\nWhenever you’re in trouble won’t you stand by me
\nOh stand by me, oh won’t you stand now, stand
\nStand by me<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
