[Verse 1]
Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feathered canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 1]
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's clouds' illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

[Verse 3]
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy, dancing way you feel
When every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

[Verse 4]
Now, all my friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
And something's lost and something's gained
In living in every day
[Chorus 2]
I've looked at love from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

[Verse 5]
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

[Chorus 3]
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
