Hey lady, you lady,
cursing at your life
嗨!女士,咒罵著自己人生的女士
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
妳是個不滿現狀的母親,也是個蠻橫的妻子
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
對你夢想的事,我並不懷疑
But, I wish someone had talked to me
Like I wanna talk to you.....
但我希望有人找我談心,像我找你談心一樣
Oh, I've been to Georgia
and California and anywhere I could run
我到過喬治亞州、加州和任何我想去的地方
I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
牽著傳教士的手,在陽光下做愛
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
我走遍各地,看盡友善的臉孔,只因我
需要自由
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
我曾到過天堂,但從未找到真我
Please lady, please
lady, don't just walk away
求求妳,女士,別走開
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
因為我必須告訴妳,為何今天我仍孓然一身
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
從妳眼裡,我看到了昔日的我
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million
lies....
何不讓我分擔妳那脆弱的心,妳那活在千萬個謊言中的心
Oh, I've been to Niece
and the Isle of Greece
我到過尼斯,到過希臘群島
while I've sipped champagne on a yacht
在遊艇上啜飲著香檳
I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
我像Harlow一樣搬到蒙地卡羅,炫耀我的收獲
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen
我曾在國王面前寬衣解帶
some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
也曾看過一些女人不該看到的事物
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me
我曾到過天堂,但從未找到真我
[spoken]
Hey, you know what paradise is?
嘿,你曉得甚麼是天堂嗎?
It's a lie, a fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like
them to be
那是個謊言,那是我們對人、事、地的憧憬,所編織出來的幻想
But you know what truth is?
但妳知道真相是甚麼嗎?
It's that little baby you're holding, it's that man you fought with
this morning
那是妳懷中抱著的嬰兒,那是今天早上和妳共同奮鬥
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
晚上一同做愛的男人
That's truth, that's love......
那就是真相,那就是愛
Sometimes I've been to
crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
有時候我會為未出世的孩子哭泣,也許那會使我的人生更完整
But I took the sweet life, I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
但我選擇了甜蜜的生活,卻從來不知道樂極也會生悲
I've spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that costs too much
to be free
我已花了一生縱情聲色,為自由付出太多代價
Hey lady......
I've been to paradise, (I've been to paradise)
女士,我曾到過天堂
But I've never been to me
但從未找到真我
Repeat:
(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 Neice and the isle of Greece while I've sipped
champagne on a yacht)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to cryin' for unborn children that might have made me
complete)
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
謝謝
