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 need sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
how to unfold you love
I don't know how
someone controlled you
they bought and sold you
I look at the world
and I see it is 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
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps
While my guitar gently weeps
Still my guitar gently weeps
