Joni Mitchell - Both Sides, Now Lyrics
Rows and floes of angel hairAnd ice cream castles in the airAnd feather canyons evrywhereIve looked at clouds that wayBut now they only block the sunThey rain and snow on evryoneSo many things I would have doneBut clouds got in my wayIve looked at clouds from both sides nowFrom up and down, and still somehowIts cloud illusions I recallI really dont know clouds at allMoons and junes and ferris wheelsThe dizzy dancing way you feelAs evry fairy tale comes realIve looked at love that wayBut now its just another showYou leave em laughing when you goAnd if you care, dont let them knowDont give yourself awayIve looked at love from both sides nowFrom give and take, and still somehowIts loves illusions I recallI really dont know love at allTears and fears and feeling proudTo say I love you right out loudDreams and schemes and circus crowdsIve looked at life that wayBut now old friends are acting strangeThey shake their heads, they say Ive changedWell somethings lost, but somethings gainedIn living evry dayIve looked at life from both sides nowFrom win and lose and still somehowIts lifes illusions I recallI really dont know life at allIve looked at life from both sides nowFrom up and down, and still somehowIts lifes illusions I recallI really dont know life at all
