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 from the wings of the plane you are stageing While my guitar gently weeps As I'm sitting here doing nothing but ageing Still my guitar gently weeps
