While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Eric Clapton (Psycho) & George Lyrics

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
As I observe everyone around me, I sense an unspoken yearning for love and connection.

While my guitar gently weeps
In the background, my guitar provides a melancholic melody that echoes the sorrow I feel for everyone's unfulfilled needs.

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
As I gaze downwards, I notice the untidiness of the world around me, reminding me of the need for action and change.

Still my guitar gently weeps
The guitar continues to play its soft sorrowful chords, emphasizing the persistence of sadness and unmet expectations.

I don't know why nobody told you
I can't fathom why nobody has taught you about love and how to express it.

How to unfold your love
How to reveal the love that you possess deep inside and share it with the world.

I don't know how someone controlled you
I cannot comprehend how an external force dominated you to the point of limiting your expression of love.

They bought and sold you
Perhaps, someone or something manipulated you as a product, devoid of feelings and personality, eradicating your sense of individuality.

I look at the world and I notice it's turning
Amid the melancholy, I look up to witness the ever-changing, unpredictable world we inhabit.

Every mistake, we must surely be learning
We learn through experience and mistakes, recognizing that they are necessary parts of our growth and development.

Still my guitar gently weeps
As time passes, my guitar continues its sorrowful melody, symbolizing the persistent nature of life's challenges.

I don't know how you were diverted
I can't figure out how you were led astray from your true nature and inherent emotional essence.

You were perverted too
Your original purpose or natural state has been distorted, corrupted, or ruined.

I don't know how you were inverted
I'm unsure how you became inverted or turned inside out, concealing your true self and emotions from the world.

No one alerted you
No one pointed out the deviation from your true path or alerted you of the damage it could cause.

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
I still see the love that resides within you, dormant and waiting to be awakened.

While my guitar gently weeps
My guitar brings us back to the present moment, reminding us of the sadness and unfulfilled longing that still remains.

I look at you all
As I finish my song, I am filled with a sense of hope, that perhaps my music has touched you and that we can work together to bring forth a world filled with love and connection.
