The Long and Winding Road
Auscultate Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 leave me waiting here
Lead me to you door
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 you door

The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen this 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
Many ways 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 leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door
But still they lead me back
To the long, winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago, oh, oh, oh
Don't keep me waiting here
Lead me to your door🎤🎶

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 you door

But still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here , lead me to you door
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

For me, this is Paul's most emotional love song. It makes me sad everytime I hear it, but in a reflective, positive way, not in a melancholic way. This song makes you realize that there is a certain sadness that makes you understand life better, that makes you love happy moments better. It is that powerful a song.

@増田信 No problem. It's been three years since she passed. I'm learning to live with my loss. Thank you

増田信

Her loss must be the height of her sorrow, but please live positively and brightly for her sake.

As a songwriter it’s hard to get your head around just how stunning this composition is. Paul at the pinnacle of craftsmanship. He’s the greatest songwriter ever.

@Julio Scissors Haha. Yeah mate. Surprisingly it was never a favourite of mine(even tho I still loved it). It’s only since I’ve been writing better songs as age takes hold that I’ve realised what a masterpiece it actually is. Smartest decision Lennon ever made letting that genius scallywag into his boy band. 😂. Good luck with the music mate. I’m writing an album just now for some up and coming Los Angeles bands. From Scotland. ✌️. It’s a shame many bands are manufactured these days. WTF happened?!? Ah yes I remember now. Reality TV 🙃🔫

I'm a songwriter as well, and I couldn't agree more. It sounds so simple, but it's not. The melodies, chord changes, it's amazing it came from a human.

T C

absolutely one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded
