Stand by me – Acoustic version

Verse 1:

Gambaay gambaay warraya

Yamindaay warraya

Yaminda, nganunda warray

Verse 2:

If the sky, we look upon, should tumble and fall all the mountains should crumble to the sea.

I wont cry, I wont cry no I wont shed a tear, just as long as you stand, stand by me.

Chorus:

Gambaay gambaay warraya

Yamindaay warraya

Yaminda, nganunda warray

Darling, Darling stand by me, oh stand by me, we believe won’t you stand, stand by me

Yaminda nganunda warray

Tell me something boy,

Aren’t you tired trying to fill that void

Or do you need more

Is there something else your searching for

Im falling

In the good times, I find myself longing

For change

And in the bad times , I fear myself

Im off the deep end, watch as I dive in

Ill never meet the ground

Crash through the surface, where they cant hurt us

Were far from the shallow now

In the sha ha sha ha low

In the sha ha sha ha sha ha low

In the sha ha sha ha low

birru ngali Ganaay’dhi

(Far us shallows from)
