I'Ve Never Been To Me

you're a discontened
mother and a regimemted wife
i've no doubt you dream about
the things you'll never do
but i wish someone had to talked
to me like
i wanna talk to you
i've been to georgia and
california and anywhere i could run
took the hand of a preacher
man 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 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 million lies
oh i've been to nice
and the lsle of greece while sipped
champagne on a yacht
i moved like harlot in monte carlo and
showed'em what i've got
i've been underessed by kings and l've
seen some things that a eoman ain't supposed to see,
hey lady
i've been to paradise but i've
never been to me
sometimes l'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
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 (i've been to paradise)
but i've never been to me
