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 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
I don't?
Moons and Junes and ferries wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
When I were fairy tale comes real
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 I recall
I really don't know life at all
