It would have to be “Both Sides, Now” by Joni Mitchell. "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." ---
