歌词
Hey lady, you, lady, cursing at your life
嘿, 女士, 女士, 你正对你的生活充满怨恨
You're a discontented mother
你是一个不容易满足的母亲
and a regimented wife
和一个失去自由的妻子
I've no doubt you dream about
我深信你也梦想过
the things you'll never do
那些你从未做过的事
But I wish someone had talked to me
但我希望有人曾经对我说过
like I wanna talk to you
就像我现在想对你说的
我曾经去过佐治亚州和加州
I've been to Georgia and California,
那些我能去过的所有地方
anywhere I could run
我牵过一个教士的手
Took the hand of a preachman
和他一起在阳光下恋爱
and we made love in the sun
但是我还是厌倦了所有的地方和那些友好的脸庞
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
因为我渴望自由
Because I had to be free
我曾经去过天堂
I've been to paradise,
却从未找回我自己
but I've never been to me
女士, 女士
请你别走开
Please lady, please, lady,
因为我要告诉你
don't just walk away
为什么我现在一直很孤独
Cause I have this need to tell you
我能从你的眼神中
why I'm all alone today
看到太多过去的我
I can see so much of me
你愿意分享我早已疲惫的心吗
still living in your eyes
这颗生活在无数谎言中的心
Won't you share a part of a weary heart
我曾经去过尼斯和希腊
that has lived a million lies
在游艇上享受香槟
Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
在蒙特卡洛像哈洛一样畅游
While I sipped champagne on a yacht
还向他们炫耀我的一切
I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo
我曾被王侯们脱下衣服
and showed 'em what I've got
我曾见识过那些
I've been undressed by kings
一个女人无法想像的事情
And I've seen some things
我曾经去过天堂
that a woman ain't supposed to see
却从未找回我自己
I've been to paradise
嘿, 你知道天堂是什么样吗? 天堂是一个谎言
But I've never been to me
一个为我们所期望的人们
和地方创造的幻想
(spoken) Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie
但是你知道生活的真相是什么吗
A fantasy we create about people
就是你手中正抱着小宝宝
and places as we'd like them to be
白天和
But you know what truth is?
那个男人吵架
It's that little baby you're holding,
晚上你却愿意
And it's that man
和他做爱
you fought with this morning,
那就是生活, 那就是爱情
the same one you're going to make
有时我会为我那些
love with tonight
没有出世的孩子们哭泣
That's truth, that's love
他们本来可以让我有完整的人生
Sometimes I've been to crying
但是我却选择了风光的生活
for unborn children
我从没想到过生活会变得苦涩
that might have made me complete
我用我的一生想弄明白
But I, I took the sweet life
那个微妙的妓女生活要付出多大的自由的代价
And never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
嘿, 女士, 我曾经去过天堂
I spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
却从未找回我自己
that cost too much to be free
我曾经去过天堂
Hey lady, I've been to paradise
却从未找回我自己
But I've never been to me
我曾经去过天堂
I've been to paradise
却从未找回我自己
I've never been to me
I've been to paradise
I've never been to me
