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
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 and winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here
Lead me to you door

Ray Charles was able to combine numbers of styles such as rythem and blues, gospel, blues and the influences from jazz and country were hearable in his music. He is listed as number two in the “100 Greatest Singers of All Time” the Rolling Stone Magazine released in November 2008.

Other artists have praised Ray Charles too for his influence in the music world. Frank Sinatra called Charles “the only true genius in show business” and Billy Joel “This may sound like sacrilege, but I think Ray Charles was more important than Elvis Presley”.
