Vivian Chow-I've never been to me
-
Lyrics: Ronald Norman Miller, Music: Ken Hirsch
-
Hey lady, you lady, cursin' 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 of 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 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 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 a 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 litle 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 cryin'
-
For unborn children that might have made me complete
-
But I, I took the sweet life
-
And never knew I'd bitter from the sweet
-
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
-
That cost too much to be free
-
Hey lady, I've been to paradise (I've been to paradise)
-
But I've never been to me (I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
-
I've been to paradise, never been to me
-
I've been to Georgia and California
-
And anywhere I could run
-
I've been to paradise, never been to me
