And if you care don't let them know, know, don't give yourself away
So many things I would have done but clouds got in my way
From give and take and still somehow it's love's illusions that I recall
I really don't know, I really don't know
I've looked at love from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow it's cloud illusions that I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Songwriter: Joni Mitchell
Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
Tears and fears and feelin' proud
But now they only block the sun, they rain and they snow on everyone
I've looked at clouds from both sides now

I really don't know what love's about at all
But now it's just another show, you leave 'em laughing when you go
And ice cream castles in the air and feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at life that way, sometimes I still do
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
Rows and flows of angel hair
I've looked at clouds that way
To say to someone I love you right out loud
Something's lost but something's gained in livin' every day
I've looked at love that way once upon a time
They shake their heads and they tell me that I have changed, yes I have
From up and down and give and take
Now old friends are acting strange
I've looked at love from both sides now
The dizzy dancing way you feel as every fairy tale comes real
From win and lose and still somehow it's love's illusions that I recall
