Noon - I`ve Never Been To Me (Charlene)

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 never do
But I wish someone
had a talk to me
like I wanna talk to you
Ooh I've been to
Georgia and California
oh
anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacherman
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
Where 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
But I
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 been to me
I've been to paradise
but I've
never been to me
