bananarit: joni mitchell

joni mitchell

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
