Lyrics

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
Now, tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
And dreams and schemes and circus crowds
You know, I've looked at life that way
Oh but now, old friends, are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well, something's lost but something's gained
In living every day
I looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose, but still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
Oh no, I really don't know clouds now
And I really don't know love
And I really don't now life at all
