Half a Mile Away

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)
