Lyrics

[00:01.25] (Ken Kirsch / Ronald Miller)
[00:04.69] Hey lady, you, lady, cursing at your life
[00:12.24] You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
[00:20.40] I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
[00:27.60] But I wish someone had talked to me like I wanna talk to you
[00:36.11] I've been to Georgia and California, anywhere I could run
[00:44.14] Took the hand of a preachman and we made love in the sun
[00:50.32] But I ran out of places and friendly faces
[00:55.36] Because I had to be free
[00:59.27] I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
[01:09.75] Please lady, please, lady, don't just walk away
[01:16.69] Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
[01:25.65] I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
[01:32.40] Won't you share a part of a weary heart
[01:36.48] that has lived a million lies
[01:40.39] I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
[01:44.49] While I sipped champagne on a yacht
[01:48.53] I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
[01:55.63] I've been undressed by kings
[01:58.68] And I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
[02:04.30] I've been to paradise
[02:07.38] But I've never been to me
[02:11.40] (spoken)
[02:12.47] Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie
[02:16.68] A fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like them to be
[02:22.42] But you know what truth is?
[02:23.91] It's that little baby you're holding,
[02:25.43] And it's that man you fought with this morning,
[02:28.39] the same one you're going to make love with tonight
[02:31.16] That's truth, that's love
[02:33.43] Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
[02:38.31] that might have made me.plete
[02:42.19] But I, I took the sweet life
[02:44.51] And never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
[02:48.32] I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
[02:53.52] that cost too much to be free
[02:56.29] Hey lady, I've been to paradise
[03:05.47] But I've never been to me
[03:17.97] I've been to paradise
[03:22.33] But I've never been to me
[03:30.28] I've been to paradise
[03:34.48] But I've never been to me
[03:50.05]
