Both Sides Now ☆ 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 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 clouds’ illusions I recall

I really don’t know clouds at all



Moons and Junes and ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

When every fairy tale comes real

I’ve looked at love that way

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

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



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 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
