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.
