Discover the story of the song > I’ve Never Been to Me – Charlene

The song is about a person who has traveled all over the world and experienced many things, but still feels like they haven't really found themselves. They observe a discontented mother and regimented wife and wish they could talk to her about how they feel. The protagonist realizes that paradise is just a fantasy we create and that truth and love are found in everyday moments, like holding a baby or making love to a partner, and that they have spent their life exploring but it has come at a cost.
