I always liked this song from Claudine Longet.

Karin

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

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would’ve 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’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all.

Moons and Junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way 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 fail, 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.

Jeers and fears and feeling proud
to say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and cirrus clouds
I’ve looked at life that way.

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I’ve changed
But something’s lost
and something’s gained in living every day.

Ive looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
Its cloud’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know clouds at all.

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.
