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
