Lyrics

Rows 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 Jewels and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale looks real
I’ve looked at love that way
But now love’s just another show
You leave 'em laughing then 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, and say I’ve changed
Well 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
I don’t know life
And I don’t know life
I don’t know life I don’t know life I don’t know life at all
I don’t know life I don’t know life I don’t know life at all
I don’t know life I don’t know life I don’t know life at all
It’s allright
