Martine Habib - Both Sides Now

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
