Both Sides Now

Rows and floes of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere

I look at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun

They rain and snow on everyone

So many things I would have done

But clouds got in my way

I look at clouds from both sides now

From up and down

And still somehow it's

Clouds' illusions I recall

I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

As every fairy tale comes real

I look at love that way

But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

But if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

I look at love from both sides now

From give and take

And still somehow it's

Love's illusions I recall

I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I look at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, they say I've changed

Well something's lost, but something's gained

In living every day

I look at life from both sides now

From win and lose

And still somehow it's

Life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

I really don't know life at all
