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.
