(Clannad & Paul Young)
|
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
|
As 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 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 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 win and lose and still somehow
|
It's life's illusions I recall
|
I really don't know life at all
|
