Nelson, Willie - Both Sides Now Lyrics






Bows and flows of angel hair
Ice cream castles in the air
And feathered canyons everywhere
I'd look at clouds that way

Now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I could have done
The 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 cloud at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris Wheels
Dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale complete
I'd look at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughin' 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 up and down and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

    Bravo Willy, You did a great job of that :)

    Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle. (Paulo Coelho, Brida)
    So in the case of Willie we drink the hole bottle.
    Always a fine man...

  4. M.... ....

    It makes me smile that he sang this. I wonder if he ever sang 'sugar mountain'. Probably not, although he would be good at it. ha .. good at anything writing it or not, doesn't matter

  5. t.... ....

    Crystal-clear diction but coarse voice. But then, Willie's vocals on Mona Lisa electrify me. Love him and hate him.

  6. S.... E....

    At 16 years old I learned to drive my brother's 65 Ford step side pickup. I listened to this 8 track and Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to learning that clutch with 3 on the column. good memories.

  7. H.... H....

    Don´t know what it is about his voice and unique style - if never fails to put a spell on me

  8. r.... ....

    Lots of people have covered this great song.

  9. m.... ....

    Cool. I wonder why he didn't sing the last verse.

    m.... ....

    When you've lived a while and seen life awhile, singing of it, even just talking of and remembering it, sometimes chokes you up. If I may dare assume Willie is anything like I am.

    m.... ....

    Limits on the album length, competed with other tracks and settings for his voice.
