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 |
