From Both Sides Now Lyrics By Dion

    bows and flows of angel hair
    an ice cream castle’s in the air
    feather canyons everywhere
    i’ve lookedatclouds that way

    butnow they only block the sun
    theyrain 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
