Both Sides Now

[Verse 1]

Rows and flows of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere

I've looked at clouds that way

[Verse 2]

But now they only block the sun

They rain and they snow on everyone

So many things I would have done but clouds got in my way

[Chorus]

But I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's cloud illusions I recall

I really don't know clouds at all

[Verse 3]

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way that you feel

As every fairy tale comes real;

I've looked at love that way

[Verse 4]

But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

[Chorus]

I've looked at love from both sides now

From give and take, and still somehow

It's love's illusions that I recall

I really don't know love at all

[Verse 5]

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way

[Verse 6]

But now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, tell me that I've changed

Something's lost but something's gained in living every day

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 7]

I've looked at life from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life

I really don't know life

I really don't know life at all
