Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
Oh, 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
When every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
Oh, but now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
But something's lost and something's gained
In living every way
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
And schemes and dreams and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
Oh, now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
But something's lost and something's gained
In living every way
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
