And ice cream castles in the air<\/span>
And feather canyons everywhere<\/span>
I’ve looked at clouds that way<\/span>
<\/span>
But now they only block the sun<\/span>
They rain and snow on everyone<\/span>
So many things I would have done<\/span>
But clouds got in my way<\/span>
<\/span>
I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now<\/span>
From up and down, and still somehow<\/span>
It’s cloud illusions I recall<\/span>
I really don’t know clouds at all<\/span>
<\/span>
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels<\/span>
The dizzy dancing way you feel<\/span>
As every fairy tale comes real<\/span>
I’ve looked at love that way<\/span>
<\/span>
But now it’s just another show<\/span>
You leave ’em laughing when you go<\/span>
And if you care, don’t let them know<\/span>
Don’t give yourself away<\/span>
<\/span>
I’ve looked at love from both sides now<\/span>
From give and take, and still somehow<\/span>
It’s love’s illusions I recall<\/span>
I really don’t know love at all<\/span>
<\/span>
Tears and fears and feeling proud<\/span>
To say “I love you” right out loud<\/span>
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds<\/span>
I’ve looked at life that way<\/span>
<\/span>
Oh but now old friends are acting strange<\/span>
They shake their heads, they say I’ve changed<\/span>
Well something’s lost but something’s gained<\/span>
In living every day<\/span>
<\/span>
I’ve looked at life from both sides now<\/span>
From WIN and LOSE and still somehow<\/span>
It’s life’s illusions I recall<\/span>
I really don’t know life at all<\/span>
<\/span>
I’ve looked at life from both sides now<\/span>
From up and down and still somehow<\/span>
It’s life’s illusions I recall<\/span>
I really don’t know life at all <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
