Love Actually movie - Both Sides Now lyrics

rate me

Song by Joni Mitchell<br /><br>

Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air<br>

And feather canyons everywhere, i've looked at cloud that way.<br>

But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone.<br>

So many things i would have done but clouds got in my way.<br>

<br>

I've looked at clouds from both sides now,<br>

From up and down, and still somehow<br>

It's cloud illusions i recall.<br>

I really don't know clouds at all.<br>

<br>

Moons and junes and ferris wheels, the dizzy dancing way you feel<br>

As every fairy tale comes real; i've looked at love that way.<br>

But now it's just another show. you leave 'em laughing when you go<br>

And if you care, don't let them know, don't give yourself away.<br>

<br>

I've looked at love from both sides now,<br>

From give and take, and still somehow<br>

It's love's illusions i recall.<br>

I really don't know love at all.<br>

<br>

Tears and fears and feeling proud to say "i love you" right out loud,<br>

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, i've looked at life that way.<br>

But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, they say<br>

I've changed.<br>

Something's lost but something's gained in living every day.<br>

<br>

I've looked at life from both sides now,<br>

From win and lose, and still somehow<br>

It's life's illusions i recall.<br>

I really don't know life at all.<br>

<br>
