blossom dearie
both sides now
Bows and flows of angel hair And ice cream castles in the air And feather 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, and still somehow It's cloud illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all  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  But now it's just another show And you leave 'em 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, and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall I really don't know love 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  Oh but now old friends they're acting strange And they shake their heads And they tell me that 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 and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life I really don't know life at all
