Billy Joel
Lyricist: Composer:
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 mama to turn out the light Crawl on the roof and then I hit the night
I should be sleeping but tonight but 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
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 half a mile away
It's just a half a mile away
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
It's just a half a mile away
