While My Guitar Gently Weeps

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 need 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 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 the wings at the play you are staging

While my guitar gently weeps

As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging

Still my guitar gently weeps
