[00:00.00]I've Never Been to Me - Howard Keel
[00:08.57]Hey mister hey mister I just want a dime
[00:16.24]'Cause I need a cup of coffee
[00:20.37]And a moment of your time
[00:25.38]I can see you're raisin' hell the way I used to do
[00:32.90]But I wish someone had'a talked to me
[00:36.61]Like I wanna talk to you
[00:42.55]Oh been to Georgia California
[00:47.84]Any place I could run
[00:51.47]Stole a woman in Tennessee
[00:55.17]And we made love in the sun
[00:58.46]But I ran out of places with friendly faces
[01:03.78]Because I had to be free
[01:08.51]I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
[01:23.28]Thank you mister thank you kindly
[01:26.44]Please don't walk away
[01:30.87]'Cause I have this need to tell you
[01:34.48]Why I'm all alone today
[01:39.20]I can see so much of me
[01:43.08]Still livin' in your eyes
[01:46.43]Won't you share a part of an old man's heart
[01:50.67]On the day before he dies
[01:55.34]Oh I've been to China and Asia Minor
[02:00.99]On any ship that could sail
[02:05.37]Made some noise with some good old boys
[02:08.79]And we wrecked the county jail
[02:12.31]I've seen the best men crawl and some teardrops fall
[02:17.31]There ain't nothing I didn't see
[02:22.30]I've been to paradise but I've never been to me
[02:51.39]I've even been to marriage
[02:54.38]Had children cryin' for someone they couldn't find
[03:00.75]Never knowin' that I was searching
[03:04.61]For things I left behind
[03:07.68]I thought my heart could wait
[03:10.38]But I learned too late
[03:12.58]Only love can make people free
[03:17.68]I've been to paradise
[03:24.89]But I've never been to me
[03:38.21]I've been to paradise
[03:41.09]But I've never been to me
[03:52.59]I've been to paradise
[03:55.44]But I've never been to me
[04:06.91]I've been to paradise
[04:09.79]But I've never been to me
