George Harrison在披头士历年的作品系谱中,并未占据太大的分量,而“While My Guitar Gently Weeps”就是他最著名的作品之一。这首歌的和弦与旋律结构是相当标准的哈里森风格-擅长操弄复杂的乐曲进行方式及曲扭旋律。
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 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
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps. |
