I'Ve Never Been To Me

Hey lady you lady cursing at your life
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
But I wish someone had talked to me
Like I wanna talk to you
Oh I've been to Georgia and California and
Anywhere I could run
I 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 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 million lies
Oh I've been to Niece and the Isle of Greece
While I've sipped champagne on a yacht
I've 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 supposed to see
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
That might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life
I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I've spent my life exploring the inner feelings
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 Neice and the isle of Greece
While I've sipped champagne on a yacht
I've been to paradise never been to me
I've been to cryin' for unborn children
That might have made me complete
