Rows 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 could 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's illusions I recall.
I really don't know clouds at all.







Moons and Junes and ferris wheels






The 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 '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 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 they're 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
