Billy Joel - Half A Mile Away lyrics

Little Geo is a friend of mine We get some money and we buy a cheap wine, Sit on the corner and have a holiday, Hide the bottle when the cop goes by, Talk about women and lie, lie, lie Oh, my other world is just a half a mile away Wait for mamma to turn out the light, Crawl on the roof and then hit the night I should be sleeping, but tonight, I just can't stay I've given everybody so much time Now, I need a moment that's mine Oh, my other world is just a half a mile away Ooh, it's just a half a mile away Ooh, it's just a half a mile away Ooh yeah, it's just a half a mile away Angelina, save a place for me I've been livin' someone else's life and now, I've got to be free Turn your transistor on and let the music play I try to keep the family satisfied But there's gotta be more to life than just try, try, try Oh, my other world is only a half a mile away Ooh, it's just a half a mile away Ooh, it's just a half a mile away Ooh yeah, it's just a half a mile away INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE I've given everybody so much time Now, I need a moment that's mine Oh, my other world is just a half a mile away Doo-ooh doo, doo-ooh doo It's just a, it's just a half a mile away (repeat and fade out)
