Sally called when she got the word
And she said
I suppose you’ve heard, but Alice
Well I rushed to the window,
and I looked outside
But I could hardly believe my eyes
As a big limousine rode up
into Alice’s drive
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 glance
Now I gotta get used to
not living next door to Alice
We grew up together,
two kids in the park
Carved out initials deep in the bark,
me an’ Alice
Now she walks through the door,
with her head held high
Just for a moment I caught her eye
As the big limousine pulled slowly
out of Alice’s drive
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 glance
Now I gotta get used to
not living next door to Alice
Then Sally called back,
and asked how I felt
And she said,
I know how to help, to 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
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 glance
But I’ll never get used to
not living next door to Alice
No, I’ll never get used to
not living next door to Alice
