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 some one had talked to me like I wanna talk of you…

Ooh 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 woman ain´t supposed to see…
I´ve been to paradise,
But I´ve never been to me….

Hey, you know what paraddise is? it´s a lie
A fantasy we create about people and places as we´d like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It´s that little baby you´re holding
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 crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But i…I took the sweet life
I never knew
I´d be bitter from the sweet
I´ve spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
That costs 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 been to neice ans the isle of greece
While I´ve sipped champange on a yacht
I´ve been to paradise never been to to me…(fade)
