Amy stated that it's her favorite song on the album:

Lately, I really like the first track. My sisters sang on that one, and it's a really simple, fun song that's a classic. I love the way that it turned out. I am really very proud of all the original songs. It was fun to write from such a different place and feel like I was good at it.

Lyrics

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
No I won't, I won't cry
No I won't shead a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand, oh
Stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
