I look at you all see the love there
that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs
sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps.
I don't know why nobody told you how to
unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.
I look at the world and I notice it's
turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be
learning
Still my guitar gently weeps.
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you.
I look at you all see the love there that's
sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all...
Still my guitar gently weeps.
