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
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
Love
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all
Oo
Still my guitar gently weeps
Oh oh oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
