LyricMeaning

(From) Both Sides Now
Natalie Merchant

Rows and flows of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons ev'rywhere

I've looked at clouds that way


But now they only block the sun

They rain and snow on ev'ryone

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 you feel

As ev'ry fairy tale comes real

I've looked at love that way


But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, 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 I recall

I 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, they say I've changed

Well something's lost, but something's gained

In living ev'ry 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

I've looked at life from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all
