Joni Mitchell - Both Sides Now

afbeelding van Keelia

Zit dit lied al de hele dag te zingen, tranen in de ogen..

Bows and flows of angel hair an 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 illusions i recall
I really don't know clouds,... at all.

Moons and junes and ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real; I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show an you leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you can't, 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 that I recall
I really don't know love, 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 they told him that I've changed
Something's lost but something's gained in the 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.

It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life, really don't know life at all.
