The long and winding road that leads to your door

Will never disappear, I’ve seen that road before

It always leads me here, lead 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

But still they lead me back to the long winding road

You left me standing here a long, long time ago

Don’t keep me waiting here, lead me to your door
