I've Never Been To Me by Charlene
Hey lady, you lady
Cursing at your life
You're a discontented mother
And a regimented wife
I've no (1)__________ you dream about
The things you never do
But I wish someone had have talked to me

And it's that man you fought with (7)________ morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's true, that's love
Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
That (8)__________ have made me complete
But I, I took the sweet life and never knew
I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my (9)________ exploring
The subtle whoring that costs too much to be free
