The word "road" is often used as a metaphor for our experience, memory and life. It's said that the second person in this song refers to Paul McCartney's then-partner, Jane Asher or the band, The Beatles.
The Long and Winding Road (The Beatles)
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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 (Don't keep me waiting), lead me to your door
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
[Verse 2]
[Verse 3]
(余談)
私も。祈っている、神にすがっている様に聴こえます。

コメントありがとうございます。Yesterdayという映画のなかに,Ed Sheeranがこの曲を聞いて自分より才能のある人間の存在を認めるという場面があり,やはり誰しもこの曲を名曲と思うのだなと納得した記憶がございます。
