Both Sides Now

                                  Rolls and flows of angel hair

Ice cream castles in the air

Feather canyons everywhere

I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun

They rain, they snow on everyone

So many things I would've done

But clouds got in my way



I've looked 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've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show

Leave 'em laughin' when you go

But if you care, don't let em' know

Don't give yourself away



I've looked 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

Say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads and say I've changed

But something's lost when somethings gained

Living everyday



I've looked 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
