Intro:
Bows and flows of a ngel ha ir, and ice cream castles i n the ai r,
And feather canyons every where-I've loo ked at clouds that w ay.
But n ow they only b lock the sun, they rain and snow on every one.
So many t hings I wo uld have d one, but cl ouds got in the wa y.
I've l ooked at clouds from b oth sides n ow,
From u p and d own, and st ill someh ow
It's c louds il lusions I re call; I real ly don't know cl ouds at a ll.
Moons and Junes and f erris wh eels, the d izzy dancing w ay you fe el
When every fairy t ale comes re al - I've loo ked at love that way .
But n ow it's just an other sh ow, you leave 'em l aughing as you g o,
And if you c are, don't let them k now, don't give yourself away .
I've lo oked at love from b oth sides n ow,
From gi ve and ta ke, and st ill someh ow,
It's love's il lusions I rec all; I r eally don't know l ove at a ll.
Tears and fears and f eeling p roud to say "I love you" r ight out l oud;
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds - I've looked at life that wa y.
But n ow old friends are a cting str ange,
They shake their heads and s ay I've cha nged,
But so mething's l ost and s omething's g ained from living every d ay.
I've looked at life from both sides now,
From w in and l ose, and st ill some how,
It's life's i llusions I rec all; I really don't know li fe at a ll.
