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
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 Niece and the Isle of Greece
while I've sipped champagne on a yacht
I've 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
I've never been to me
I've been to paradise
I've never been to me
I've been to paradise
