Joni Mitchell "Both Sides Now"

Another 2 more weekends and I'll be heading to Genting with Tom and his friends. I can't wait coz after all, it's the 1st time we're leaving on a trip together though it's with his friends as well. At least, I get to spend some time out of Singapore with him after 2 years plus together. :) Feeling excited already!

Lyrics to a song that I really like by Joni Mitchell. It's in the soundtrack from "Love Actually". I listen to this song so much that my soundtrack is actually spoiling. Sighz.. Gotta replace a copy of the CD and buy more Joni Mitchell's CDs. Need to go to HMV coz I can't seem to find her CDs in the other music stores.

Rows and floes 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 and they tell me that 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
