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
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 them 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 are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I`ve changed
But something`s lost and 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
