Both Sides Now (Torch Songs With Intro)歌词
作词 : Joni Mitchell
作曲 : Joni Mitchell
Hello, I'm Olly Alexander
And my torch song I have chosen to cover is Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell
Umm, I chose this because I'm a huge Joni Mitchell fan
I have been for a really really long time
And this song always makes me cry
I think she's an amazing lyricist
and something about the way
she writes about the world makes me feel a bit better living in it
Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
Now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
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 that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave them 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 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 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
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
