Long & Winding Road

“The Long and Winding Road” is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1970 album Let It Be. It was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney.

The long and winding road
That leads
To your door
Will never disappear
I’ve seen that road before
It always leads me here
Leads me to your door
The wild and windy night
That the rain
Washed away
Has left a pool of tears
Crying for the day
Why leave me standing here?
Let me know the way
Many times I’ve been alone
And many times I’ve cried
Anyway you’ll never know
The many ways I’ve tried
And still they lead me back
To the long and winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don’t leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door
