While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Discovering Love's Silent Echo in a Gently Weeping Guitar
Lyrics
I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
I observe all of you and perceive the dormant affection
While my guitar gently weeps
While I express my emotions through playing the guitar
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
I glance at the ground and notice it requires cleaning
Still my guitar gently weeps
Yet, my guitar expresses sadness and longing
I don't know why nobody told you
I am puzzled why no one advised you
How to unfold your love
About unraveling or discovering your affection
I don't know how someone controlled you
I'm unsure how someone manipulated your actions
They bought and sold you
They traded and controlled your choices
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
Observing the world's constant movement
While my guitar gently weeps
Meanwhile, my guitar echoes with sorrow
With every mistake, we must surely be learning
From every error, it seems we should be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
Yet, my guitar continues to convey sadness
I don't know how you were diverted
I'm unsure how your path was diverted
You were perverted too
It was twisted or corrupted in some way
I don't know how you were inverted
I'm puzzled about how your perspective changed
No one alerted you
No one forewarned or cautioned you
I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
Again, I perceive latent affection among everyone
While my guitar gently weeps
While my guitar resonates with melancholy
I look, look at you all
I continue to observe, gazing at all of you
Still my guitar gently weeps
Yet, my guitar remains sorrowful
Oh, oh
Expressions of sorrow or lamentation
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Vocalizations conveying deep emotions
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Intensification of emotional expression
Oh, oh
Further expressions of emotion
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Exclamations emphasizing a sentiment
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, ooh
Repeated exclamations, possibly signifying distress or realization
