一首颇有年代的英语歌曲，1977年由Charlene演唱，但是直到1982年DJ偶然在电台播放这 首歌，才广为众人注意，而之後Charlene却并未大红大紫，因星运不佳而逐渐淡出歌坛， 於是这首I've never been to me便成了她最有名也可算是唯一的代表作。 不少人翻唱过这首歌，如邓丽君、李玟、SHE ，不过原唱Charlene的情绪最能符合这首歌 的心情，而且只有原唱才有中间的口白。 这是一首带有故事性的歌曲，包含了惊人的丰富情节及劝世意味，不愧是经得起时间考验 的经典老歌。 http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=r-vx4GcjASE 古早古早的MV Hey lady, you, lady, cursin' at your life 嘿 这位咒骂自己人生的女士 You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife 你既是个不满现实的母亲也是一位受家累所困的妻子 I've no doubt you dream about the things you never do 我知道你渴望着那些你不曾经历过的体验 But I wish someone had a talk to me like I wanna talk to you 而我将对你说的这些话 我多麽希望当初有人能说给我听 Ooh I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run 我去过乔治亚 加利福尼亚 以及我能到达的任何地方 Took the hand of a preacherman and we made love in the sun 我曾牵着一位牧师的手然後两人在日光下求欢 But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free 然而我放弃安定 远离友谊 只因我不愿被羁绊 I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me 我享尽了极乐 但却迷失了自我的方向 Please lady, please, lady, don't just walk away 女士 拜托 请别离去 'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today 因为我一定得告诉你 现今我形单影只的原因 I can see so much of me still living in your eyes 在你眼中 我看见了以前的自己 Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived a million lies 可否让我向你倾诉一点因为无数谎言而感到疲倦的心情 Oh I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece where I sipped champagne on a yacht 我曾搭乘游艇 品嚐香槟 游憩於法国尼斯港及希腊岛屿 I moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got 像艳星珍哈露一般 在蒙地卡罗卖弄风情 I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see 我曾献身於王公亲贵 历经世间女子难以想像的遭遇 I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me 我享尽了极乐 但却迷失於自我的内心 (spoken) 口白 Hey, you know what paradise is?
