Both Sides Now
Rows and flows of angel hairIce cream castles in the airFeather canyons everywhereI've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sunThey rain, they snow on everyoneSo many things I would've doneBut clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides nowFrom up and down and still somehowIt's cloud's illusions, I recallI really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and ferris wheelsThe dizzy dancin' way you feelAs every fairy tale comes realI've looked at love that way
But now it's just another showLeave 'em laughing when you goAnd if you care don't let them knowDon't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides nowFrom give and take and still somehowIt's love's illusions, I recallI really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proudSay "I love you", right out loudDreams and schemes and circus crowdsI've looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strangeThey shake their heads and say I've changedBut somethings lost when somethings gainedLiving every day
I've looked at life from both sides nowFrom win and lose and still somehowIt's life's illusions, I recallI really don't know life at all
