I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

you how to unfold your love

I don't know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you

I look from the wings at the play you are staging

as I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging  
Dm          C          F     A   
Still my guitar gently weeps
