Boths Sides Now
| About Joni Mitchell | Play MP3 Audio | On Youtube |

Rows and flows of angel hair
Ice cream castles in the air
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 the way

Chorus
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 dunes and ferris wheels
And 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

Chorus
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 crowd
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their head and say I've changed
But something's lost and something's gained
In living everyday

Chorus
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
