Both Sides Now Cæcilie Norby

Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I 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 the way

I looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
Oh no, I really don't know clouds now at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheel
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
You know, I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave them laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

And I looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, but still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
Oh no, I really don't know love at all
