[00:04.370]Hey lady,
[00:06.270]you lady, cursing at your life
[00:11.450]You're a discontented mother
[00:15.209]and a regimented wife
[00:20.200]I've no doubt you dream about
[00:23.590]the things you'll never do
[00:27.400]But I wish someone had talked to me like I
[00:32.800]wanna talk to you
[00:34.390]Oh, I've been to Georgia and California
[00:39.650]and anywhere I could run
[00:43.150]I took the hand of a preacher man
[00:46.880]-and we made love in the sun
[00:50.200]But I ran out of places
[00:53.290]and friendly faces because I had to be free
[00:59.600]I've been to paradise
[01:02.330]but I've never been to me
[01:08.640]Please lady, please lady,
[01:13.800]don't just walk away
[01:15.970]Cause I have this need to tell you
[01:19.930]why I'm all alone today
[01:24.980]I can see so much of me
[01:28.420]still living in your eyes
[01:31.989]Won't you share a part of a weary heart
[01:36.800]that has lived a million lies....
[01:39.190]Oh, I've been to Nice
[01:42.340]and the Isle of Greece
[01:43.910]while I've sipped champagne on a yacht
[01:47.670]I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
[01:51.610]and showed 'em what I've got
[01:54.820]I've been undressed by kings
[01:57.520]and I've seen some things
[01:59.630]that a woman ain't supposed to see
[02:03.600]I've been to paradise,
[02:07.310]but I've never been to me
[02:12.820]Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie
[02:16.850]A fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like them to be
[02:20.989]But you know what truth is?
[02:23.279]It's that little baby you're holding
[02:25.260]It's that man you fought with this morning
[02:27.649]The same one you're going to make love with tonight
[02:30.239]That's truth, that's love
[02:32.899]Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
[02:38.200]that might have made me complete
[02:41.190]But I took the sweet life,
[02:44.600]I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
[02:48.100]I've spent my life exploring the subtle
[02:51.690]whoring that costs too much to be free
[02:56.160]Hey lady, I've been to paradise,
[03:04.170]but I've never been to me
[03:16.370]I've been to paradise
[03:21.400]I've never been to me
[03:29.799]I've been to paradise
[03:34.250]I've never been to me
