"Both Sides Now (Live in LA)" lyrics

"Both Sides Now (Live in LA)"
(originally by Joni Mitchell)

Rows and flows of angel hair
And 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've 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
And 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 illusion that 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, they're acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well, something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose, and still somehow
It's life's illusions, that I recall
I really don't know life
I really, really, really, really, really don't know life
I really, really, really, really, really don't know life at all, at all, at all
