　　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 a talked to me
　　like I wanna talk to you.....
　　
　　Ooh 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.......
　　
　　Ooh I‘ve been to Nice and the Isle of Greece
　　while I‘ve sipped champagne on a yacht
　　I moved like Harlow 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
　　but I‘ve never been to me....
　　
　　I‘ve been to paradise
　　but I‘ve never been to me..
