Both Sides Now

Katty sent this song today saying that listening to it reminded him of me. (Dunno why and how! Crazy, he is, and such a sweetheart!)

Thanks much Katty!
I cant clearly express how I feel. But I am sure I want to keep it with me forever.
So, here I blog it!



Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell

Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons evrywhere
Ive looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on evryone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way

Ive looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its cloud illusions I recall
I really dont know clouds at all

Moons and junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As evry fairy tale comes real
Ive looked at love that way

But now its just another show
You leave em laughing when you go
And if you care, dont let them know
Dont give yourself away

Ive looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
Its loves illusions I recall
I really dont know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
Ive looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say Ive changed
Well somethings lost, but somethings gained
In living evry day

Ive looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all

Ive looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its lifes illusions I recall
I really dont know life at all

Hey! I haven't heard this song in AGES. Though it sounds a bit different from what I remember .. is this a new version? Or maybe what I heard was the new version .. oh well, whatever. It's nice to hear again.

BTW 28TH reason I'm still single is that I can't count! Men hate that LOL

Yeah, that one's a killer. There's a more famous version by another singer I'm forgetting, but it sounds the best in Joni's smoke-wispy voice.
