Rows and flows of angel hair
|
And ice cream castles in the air
|
And feather canyons evĄ¯rywhere
|
IĄ¯ve looked at clouds that way
|
|
But now they only block the sun
|
They rain and snow on evĄ¯ryone
|
So many things I would have done
|
But clouds got in my way
|
IĄ¯ve looked at clouds from both sides now
|
From up and down, and still somehow
|
ItĄ¯s cloud illusions I recall
|
I really donĄ¯t know clouds at all
|
|
Moons and junes and ferris wheels
|
The dizzy dancing way you feel
|
As evĄ¯ry fairy tale comes real
|
IĄ¯ve looked at love that way
|
|
But now itĄ¯s just another show
|
You leave Ą¯em laughing when you go
|
And if you care, donĄ¯t let them know
|
DonĄ¯t give yourself away
|
|
IĄ¯ve looked at love from both sides now
|
From give and take, and still somehow
|
ItĄ¯s loveĄ¯s illusions I recall
|
I really donĄ¯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
|
IĄ¯ve looked at life that way
|
|
But now old friends are acting strange
|
They shake their heads, they say IĄ¯ve changed
|
Well somethingĄ¯s lost, but somethingĄ¯s gained
|
In living evĄ¯ry day
|
|
IĄ¯ve looked at life from both sides now
|
From win and lose and still somehow
|
ItĄ¯s lifeĄ¯s illusions I recall
|
I really donĄ¯t know life at all
|
IĄ¯ve looked at life from both sides now
|
From up and down, and still somehow
|
ItĄ¯s lifeĄ¯s illusions I recall
|
I really donĄ¯t know life at all
|
