[00:04.67]Hey lady,
[00:06.57]you lady, cursing at your life
[00:11.75]You''re a discontented mother
[00:15.51]and a regimented wife
[00:20.32]I''ve no doubt you dream about
[00:23.89]-the things you''ll never do
[00:27.34]But I wish someone had talked to me like I
[00:32.38]-wanna talk to you
[00:34.69]Oh, I''ve been to Georgia and California
[00:39.95]- and anywhere I could run
[00:43.45]I took the hand of a preacher man
[00:47.18]-and we made love in the sun
[00:50.32]But I ran out of places
[00:53.59]and friendly faces because I had to be free
[00:59.09]I''ve been to paradise
[01:02.63]but I''ve never been to me
[01:08.94]Please lady, please lady,
[01:13.38]-don''t just walk away
[01:16.27]''Cause I have this need to tell you
[01:20.23]why I''m all alone today
[01:25.28]I can see so much of me
[01:28.72]-still living in your eyes
[01:32.29]Won''t you share a part of a weary heart
[01:36.38]-that has lived a million lies....
[01:39.49]Oh, I''ve been to Niece
[01:42.64]-and the Isle of Greece
[01:44.21]while I''ve sipped champagne on a yacht
[01:47.97]I''ve moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
[01:51.91]-and showed ''em what I''ve got
[01:55.12]I''ve been undressed by kings
[01:57.82]and I''ve seen some things
[01:59.93]-that a woman ain''t supposed to see
[02:03.90]I''ve been to paradise,
[02:07.61]but I''ve never been to me
[02:13.12]Hey, you know what paradise is? It''s a lie
[02:17.15]A fantasy we create about people and places as we''d like them to be
[02:21.29]But you know what truth is?
[02:23.58]It''s that little baby you''re holding
[02:25.56]It''s that man you fought with this morning
[02:27.95]The same one you''re going to make love with tonight
[02:30.54]That''s truth, that''s love
[02:33.02]Sometimes I''ve been to crying for unborn children
[02:38.05]-hat might have made me complete
[02:41.32]But I took the sweet life,
[02:44.09]-I never knew I''d be bitter from the sweet
[02:48.40]I''ve spent my life exploring the subtle
[02:51.99]whoring that costs too much to be free
[02:56.46]Hey lady, I''ve been to paradise,
[03:04.47]but I''ve never been to me
[03:30.01][03:16.67]I''ve been to paradise
[03:34.55][03:21.34]I''ve never been to me
