BOTH SIDES NOW

Rows and flows of angel's hair And icecream castles in the air And feathered canyons everywhere I've looked at clouds that way 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. I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down, but still somehow It's cloud illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all. Moon and Junes and Ferries wheels That 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 You leave them laughing when you go And if you care, don't let them know Don't give yourself away. I've looked at love from both sides now From give and take, but 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've looked 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've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose, but still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all.
