long and winding road, i fall and rise, fall and rise i'll never stop walking i fall and rise fall and rise crossing one bridge after another i fall and rise fall and rise how long is the way.. i stand firmly with head held high.
they say love comes only a million to one say that there's no chance that the sun will ever shine on me they say i'll fall, they say i would run away, saying i'll stay forever alone. they say i don't fit in life, because i have no desire for gold and diamonds, i don't have the right cards maybe it's the society which collapses if it isn't the right place for the rainbow searches ignoring the mark of time, where's my star? people, i exist for you, i might have no value, but i have soul, i've got a song i have a way.
long and winding road...
before me a pillar of fire behind a cloud of smoke, i left a metal city behind, going where? to a place where the sun is not covered by buildings beyond the mountains to the green fields because there's a a place much sweeter than this place, where there is time, much longer, as much as we want a moment comes, it's the moment to think to spread a wing, say goodbye get up and leave to the place where i can be myself, after 2000 years of exile, want to be free beyond the horizon where the birds sing there i'll go and till then sing songs
how long and winding is the road I don't stand still, can't stop leaving behind the fears and the sorrow all is all, i must move on everything that happens, i know it should happen i am the fire you can't put out the music will take me up and to the depth, the road is long, walking it- that's living.
long and winding road...
every end is a new beginning sadness is a sign for a joy soon to come i'm not in a race, not in a war head in the clouds feet on the ground.
