I've Never Been To Me by Charlene

Hey lady, you lady
Cursing at your life
You're a (1)________________________ mother
And a (2)____________________ wife
I've no doubt you dream about
The (3)____________ you (4)__________ do
But I wish (5)______________ had (6)________ (7)____________ to me
Like I want to talk to you
(Ooh) I've been to Georgia and (8)____________________ and
Anywhere I could run
Took the (9)________ of a preacher man
And we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and (10)________________ 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
Coz I have this (11)________ to tell you
Why I'm all (12)__________ today
I can see so much of me still living in (13)________ eyes
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
That has lived a million lives
(Ooh) I've been to Nice and the Isle of Greece
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
I moved like Harlow in (14)__________ Carlo
And (15)____________ em what I'd got
I've been (16)__________________ by kings
And I've seen some things
That a (17)__________ ain't supposed to see
I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
Hey, you (18)________ (19)________ paradise is?
It's a lie
A fantasy recreated by people
And places as we'd like them to be
But you (20)________ what truth is?
It's that (21)____________ (22)________ you're holding
And it's that man you (23)____________ with this morning
The same one you're going to (24)________ love with tonight
That's true, that's love
Sometimes I've been to crying for (25)____________ children
That might have made me complete
But I, I (26)________ the sweet life and never knew
I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring
The (27)____________ whoring that costs too much to be free
Hey lady, I've been to paradise
But I've never (28)________ to me
