I've Never Been To Me - 彭羚 (Cass Phang)

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

Ooh 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

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 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

Hey lady I've been to paradise

But I've never been to me

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

I've been to nice and the isle of Greece

While I sipped champagne on a yacht
