DOUBLE TAKE

DOUBLE TAKE “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” These words stay as time may allow I've looked at life from both sides now So ignorant over these years Those lyrics now bring me to tears The original song survives Yet the poetic lyric thrives I've looked at life from both sides now Like low hanging fruit on the bough Perhaps with age it makes more sense In my youth I must have been dense With deep respect I take a bow I've looked at life from both sides now ‘Both Sides Now’ by Joni Mitchell
