Story Behind The Song
I once lived in a loft that was attached on either side to other units. In the bedroom, I often heard, through the wall, a radio playing country music softly. Made me want to know who was listening. I found out, and I liked what I found out. 'Nuff said.

Lyrics
VERSE
In here, the clock beats like my heart
In here, I'm fallin' all apart
Alone, lookin' for a way to say
Hello, just one wall away
CHORUS
One wall away, the music plays
One wall away, another day
One wall away, here I stay, feet of clay
My heart knows you lay one wall away
VERSE
You come and go; I do the same
I know yours, but you don't know my name
So close; such a long, long way
Hello, just one wall away
Repeat CHORUS
RIDE
BRIDGE
"Well, hello there, neighbor, how are you?
Won't you stop in for a drink?
Iced tea? Sure. Come on in."
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Just one wall away...
