Yes, the song appears to be about the Beatles & many things that was going on in the Beatles life at the time must have inspired it.. I cant disagree BUT there is also a much deeper level of understanding in this song.. it is about one's relationship to GOD
I used to listen to it, it made me emotional & i thought it was a love song ( it matched how I felt about frustrating romances) & other times i thought it is a song about some unattainable goal that has a long & winding road to reach it 9it matched how i felt about my career that never got any better or never moved any further)
BUT then ONE DAY it hit me when i was having one of those spiritual ups & downs.. I was literally & desperately crying out to God for help & this song began to play at the same time & oh my God... this was it.. i got what it is all about
IT IS ABOUT THE LONG & WINING ROAD TO GOD & BACK FROM GOD THROUGHOUT ALL OF ETERNITY... this road has no beginning & has no end.. it always is.... You are one with God but then you separate (this separation is only an illusion) when you are born into a new body & then you return to God when you die & become one again... & this keeps going on & going on for eternity.....
when you cry out & suffer is when are under the illusion that you are separate from God & that you are on an endless & tiring road to God but the peace comes in when you realize that in ultimate reality you are never separate from God & you are never on a road to God becuase you are with GOD always & all ways
