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 (2)____________ you never do
But I wish someone had have talked to me
Like I want to talk to you
(Ooh) I've (3)________ to Georgia and (4)____________________ and
Anywhere I could run
Took the (5)________ of a preacher man
And we (6)________ 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 (7)________ to me

Please lady, please lady
Don't just (8)________ away
Coz I have this need to tell you
Why I'm all alone today
I can see so (9)________ of me (10)__________ (11)____________ in your eyes
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
That has lived a million lives
(Ooh) I've (12)________ 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'd got
I've (13)________ (14)__________________ by kings
And I've seen some things
That a woman ain't supposed to see
I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
Hey, you know what (15)________________ is?
It's a lie
A (16)______________ recreated by people
And places as we'd like them to be
But you know what (17)__________ is?
It's that little baby you're holding
And it's that man you (18)____________ with this morning
The (19)________ one you're going to (20)________ love (21)________ tonight
That's true, that's love
Sometimes I've (22)________ to crying for (23)____________ children
That might have made me complete
But I, I (24)________ the sweet (25)________ and never knew
I'd be bitter from the sweet
I spent my life exploring
The subtle whoring that costs too (26)________ to be free
Hey lady, I've been to paradise
But I've never been to me
