  3. imagery Repetition • Bows and Flows of angel hair, and ice cream castles in the air, • And feather canyons ev’rywhere, I’ve looked at clouds that way. • But now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on ev’ryone. • 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. Personification Metaphor Symbolism

  4. 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. Alliteration Repetition Couplet

  5. 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. • 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. End Rhyme Internal Rhyme Repetition

  6. But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, • They say I’ve changed. • But something’s lost but something’s gained, in living ev’ry day. • I’ve looked at life from both sides now, • From win and lose and still home how its life’s illusions I recall; • I really don’t know life at all.
