Sally called^ when she got the word
And she said I suppose you`ve heard
About Alice..,
Well I rushed to the window And I looked outside
Well I could hardly believe my eyes
As a big limousine rolled up in to Alice drive
Chorus: Oh, I don`t know why she`s leaving Or where she`s gonna go^
I guess she`s got her reasons, But I just don`t wanna know
cause for twenty four years, I`ve been living next door to Alice.
Twenty four years just waitin` for a chance
To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glanse
Now I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice.
We grew up together^ two kids in the park,
Carved our initials deep in the park me and Alice.
Now she walks througs the door^ with her head held hign,
Just for a moment^ I caught her eye ^
as a big limousine pulled showly out of the Alice drive.
Chorus:
Then Sally called back^ and how I felt
And she I know^ how to help get over Alice
She said now Alice is gone^ but I`m still here
You know I`ve been waiting^ twenty four years
And the big limousine disappeared.
Coda: No I`ll never get used to not living next door to Alice.
