Both Sides Now
Una amiga me ha mostrado esta canción y al escucharla me he dado cuenta de la razon que tiene la letra. Habla de como ella veia antes la vida y como la ve ahora, cómo cambian los puntos de vista, cómo cuando algo te enseña o te hace reflexionar, tu cabeza cambia. Y puede ser que lo que antes te parecia una cosa, ya no, porque no hace falta mantenerse en la misma postura toda la vida, porque nadie puede evitar volverse mas sabio. Y asi también, según nuestro estado de ánimo un dia podemos ver las nubes como castillos de helado y otro dia verlas como aquello que tapa el sol.
Otra frase que me ha gustado ha sido "Well something's lost, but something's gained in living every day" lo que quiere decir que vivir cada dia nos supone tal vez alguna pequeña perdida, podemos arriesgar algo, pero a su vez ganamos, y casi siempre ganamos, alegria, esperanza, experiencia, sabiduria, vida... Asi que no hay que temer el mañana, hay que anhelarlo, esperarlo, ¿que nos deparará?
Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere, i've looked at cloud 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.
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.
But now old friends are acting strange, they shake their heads, they say i've changed.
Something's lost but something's gained in living every day.
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.
