Look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently
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
