I've Never Been To Me
Hey lady you lady cursin' at your life
- Hey lady you lady cursin' at your life
- You're a discontented mother and a rich inventive wife
- I've no doubt you dream about
- the things you'll never do
- But I wish someone
- had a talked to me like I
- wanna talk to you
- Ooh I've been to Georgia
- and California oh anywhere I could run
- Took the hand of a preacherman
- and we made love in the sun
- But I ran out of places and
- friendly faces because I had to be free
- I've been to paradise
- but I've never been to me
- Please lady please lady
- don't just walk away
- Cause I have this need to tell you
- why I'm all alone today
- I can see so much of me
- still living in your eyes
- Won't you share a part of a weary heart
- that has lived a million lies
- Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
- While i sipped champagne on a yacht
- I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
- and showed 'em what I've got
- I've been undressed
- by kings and I've seen some things
- That a woman ain't s'posed to see
- I've been to paradise
- But I've never been to me
- Hay you know what paradise
- its a lie a fantasy we creata
- Abtout people and places as
- we'd like them to be But you know what truth is
- It's that little baby you're holding
- and it's that man you fought with
- This morning
- The same one
- you're going to make love with tonight
- That's truth that's love
- Sometimes I've been to cryin' for unborn children
- That might have made me complete
- But I I took the sweet life
- and never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
- I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
- that cost too much to be free
- Hey lady I've been to paradise
- but I've never been to me
- I've been to paradise never been to me
- I've been to Georgia
- and California and anywhere I could run
- I've been to paradise never been to me
- I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
- While I sipped champagne on a yacht
- I've been to paradise never been to me
