I've Never Been to Me (LP版)

I've Never Been to Me (LP版) - Randy Crawford

Hey lady you lady cursin' at your life

You're a discontented mother

And a rich inventive 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

Oh I've been to Georgia and California

Oh 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 a 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 s'posed to see

I've been to paradise but I've never been to me

Sometimes I've been to cryin' for unborn children

That might have made me complete

I took the sweet life

And never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet

I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring

That cost too much to be free

I've been to paradise

But I've never

I've never been to me
