BOTH SIDES NOW - JONI MITCHELL

Now this song takes me back to high school and the first guy I had a real crush on!! Those were the days of hanging out in coffee houses in Montreal, The New Penelope and The Yellow Door. Joni Mitchell played both of these places in 1967 and a couple more visits to The New Penelope in 1968. Joni also played at Expo 67 and I had a season's pass and I attended that concert.


My selections were taken from our condo over the last couple of months.

Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

But 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 you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love 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
