Lyrics to From Both Sides Now

Bows and flows of angel hair

An ice cream castle's in the air

Feather canyons everywhere

I've looked at clouds that way



But now they only block the sun

They rain their snow on everyone

So many things I would've 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



The moon and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

When every fairytale 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 'em know

Don't give yourself away



I've looked at love from both sides now

From give and take, still, somehow it's love's illusions I recall

I really don't know love at all



Tears, fears feeling doubt

To say I love right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way



But now friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, they say I've changed

But 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
