- 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'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
-
- But now it's just another show,
- you leave 'em laughin
- 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 win and lose
- 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
- but something's gained
- in living every day
-
- I've looked at life
- from both sides now
- From give and take
- and still somehow
- It's life's illusions I recall
- I really
- don't know life at all
-
