Intro: |
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 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 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 |
Hey, you know what paradise 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 |
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 |
Bridge: |
x2 |
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 |
