[00:05.18]Hey lady, you lady
[00:08.82]Cursing at your life
[00:12.10]You're a discontented mother
[00:15.74]And a regimented wife
[00:21.02]I've no doubt you dream about
[00:24.16]The things you'll never do
[00:27.50]But, I wish someone had talked to me
[00:31.48]Like I wanna talk to you
[00:34.96]Oh, I've been to Georgia and California
[00:39.90]And, anywhere I could run
[00:43.78]I took the hand of a preacher man
[00:47.42]And we made love in the sun
[00:50.60]But I ran out of places and friendly faces
[00:55.24]Because I had to be free
[00:59.17]I've been to paradise
[01:02.81]But I've never been to me
[01:09.73]Please lady, please
[01:12.52]Lady don't just walk away
[01:16.91]'Cause I have this need to tell you
[01:20.24]Why I'm all alone today
[01:25.32]I can see so much of me
[01:28.56]Still living in your eyes
[01:32.24]Won't you share a part of a weary heart
[01:36.52]That has lived million lies
[01:39.31]Oh, I've been to nice and the Isle of Greece
[01:44.41]While I've sipped champagne on a yacht
[01:48.19]I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
[01:52.18]And showed 'em what I've got
[01:54.92]I've been undressed by kings
[01:57.61]And I've seen some things
[01:59.75]That a woman ain't supposed to see
[02:03.93]I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
[02:12.84]Hey, you know what paradise is?
[02:15.58]It's a lie, a fantasy we create about
[02:18.63]People and places as we'd like them to be
[02:21.46]But you know what truth is?
[02:23.15]It's that little baby you're holding
[02:25.10]It's that man you fought with this morning
[02:27.49]The same one you're going to make love with tonight
[02:30.74]That's truth, that's love
[02:32.53]Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
[02:36.96]That might have made me complete
[02:40.84]But I, I took the sweet life, I never knew
[02:44.93]I'd be bitter from the sweet
[02:47.92]I've spent my life exploring, the subtle whoring
[02:52.70]That costs too much to be free
[02:55.79]Hey lady, I've been to paradise
[03:04.35]But I've never been to me
