Rows and flows of angel hair                   天使的发丝飘动
And ice cream castles in the air               空中的冰激凌城堡
And feather canyons everywhere                 羽毛堆成的峡谷啊无处不在
I've looked at clouds that way                 我曾是那样观云

 

But now they only block the sun                但如今它们只是遮挡着太阳
They rain and snow on everyone                 撒落雨点和雪花
So many things I would have done               要不是它们捣乱
But clouds got in my way                       我可以完成更多的事

I've looked at clouds from both sides now      我如今看云可不一样

From up and down, and still somehow            从上到下仔细看
It's cloud illusions I recall                  怎奈云仍然迷惑着我
I really don't know clouds at all              我原来不懂云

 

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels              月光、六月和摩天轮
The dizzy dancing way you feel                 跳舞时昏眩的感觉
As ev'ry fairy tale comes real                 彷佛每个童话都成真
I've looked at love that way                   我曾是那样期待爱情

 

But now it's just another show                  可如今都是逢场作戏
You leave 'em laughing when you go              爱得深却会被人耻笑
And if you care, don't let them know            你得装作无所谓
Don't give yourself away                        掩藏真感情

 

I've looked at love from both sides now         正反两面看爱情
From give and take, and still somehow           有给予也有收获
It's love's illusions I recall                  怎奈爱情仍然迷惑着我
I really don't know love at all                 我原来不懂爱情

 

Tears and fears and feeling proud               泪水、恐惧和自尊
To say "I love you" right out loud              大声得说出“我爱你”
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds            梦想、心计如置身马戏团
I've looked at life that way                    我曾是那样思考生活

 

But now old friends are acting strange          可如今我的朋友们真奇怪
They shake their heads,                         他们摇头说我变了
they say I've changed                           哦，生活中
Well something's lost,                          总难免有得有失
but something's gained
In living every day

 

I've looked at life from both sides now         正反两面看生活
From win and lose and still somehow             得失如何说的清
It's life's illusions I recall                  生活仍然迷惑着我
I really don't know life at all                 我原来不懂生活
