Both Sides Now

Both Sides Now
John Barrowman
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 cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
And 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
Something's lost but something's gained in
from 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
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...
Don't know love...
Don't know love...
...at all.
