Lyrics to I've Never Been To Me by Charlene
- Hey lady, you lady
- Cursing at your life
- You're a discontented mother
- And a regimented wife
- I've no doubt you dream about
- The things you'll never do
- But, I wish someone had talked to me
- Like I wanna talk to you
- Whoooa, I've been to Georgia
- And California and anywhere I could run
- Took the hand of a preacher man
- And we made love in the sun
- But I ran out of places
- And friendly faces
- Because I had to be free
- I've been to paradise
- But I've never been to me
- Please lady, please, lady
- Don't just walk away
- 'Cause I have this need to tell you
- Why I'm all alone today
- I can see so much of me
- Still living in your eyes
- Won't you share a part
- Of a weary heart
- That has lived million lies
- Oh, I've been to Nice
- And the Isle of Greece
- While I've sipped champagne on a yacht
- I've moved like Harlowe in Monte Carlo
- And showed 'em what I've got
- I've been undressed by kings
- And I've seen some things
- That a woman ain't supposed to see
- I've been to paradise
- But I've never been to me
- Hey, you know what paradise is
- It's a lie
- A fantasy we create about people
- And places as we'd like them to be
- But you know what truth is
- It's that little baby you're holding
- And it's that man you fought with this morning
- The same one you're going to make love with tonight
- That's truth, that's love
- Sometimes I've been to crying
- For unborn children
- That might have made me complete
- But I, I took the sweet life
- I never knew
- I'd be bitter from the sweet
- I've spent my life exploring
- The subtle whoring
- That costs too much to be free
- Hey lady, I've been to paradise
- But I've never been to me.
- I've been to paradise
- Never been to me.
