Lyrics

I've been to Africa
Yeah, I rolled along the Cape
Where the mountains are all haloed
Like the angels knew their names
We made love at the drive-in
On a rainy Capetown night
When the sun sank in the harbor
There were tears in both our eyes
'Cause I've never been
I've never been
Well, I've given it all up
But I've never given in
Yeah, I bet so high, I'm bluffin'
But my hand would never win
When it comes to love, I've never been
Well, I've been to California
Where the fruit falls from the vine
Where the cliffsides kiss the ocean
And the valleys are full of wine
We made love in the Redwoods
On a blanket made of pine
Well, I left him in the mornin'
'Cause to stay would be a crime
'Cause I've never been
I've never been
Well, I've given it all up
But I've never given in
Yeah, I bet so high, I'm bluffin'
But my hand would never win
When it comes to love, I've never been
Well, I'm starin' down the pages
Of a map that's gotten old
Wonderin' where I'll find the pressure
To crystallize this heart of coal
Down a hundred lonely highways
For a thousand hungry days
Makin' love to the memories
Of the ones that got away
I've been to the carnival
In the room of magic mirrors
With a knife inside my boot
Like hawk feathers in my hair
And while the dim reflection
Waved like water in a pool
All the woman I believed I was
Became a younger fool
'Cause I've never been
I've never been
Well, I've given it all up
But I've never given in
Yeah, I bet so high, I'm bluffin'
But my hand would never win
When it comes to love, I've never been
When it comes to love, I've never been
When it comes to love, I've never been
