Strophe)
Sally called and she got the word
She said I suppose you´re heard, about Alice
When I rushed to the window, and I looked outside
I could hardly believe my eyes
And the big limousine pulled up, in Alices drive
Refrain)
Oh, I don´t know why she´s leaving, ot where she´s gonna go
I guess she´s got her reasons but I just don´t wanna know
Cause for 24 years I´ve been living next doot to Alice
24 years just waitiing fot the chance
To tell her how I feel and maybe get s second glance
Not I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice
Strophe)
We walked together, two kids in the park
We inscribed our initials deep in the bark, me and Alice
Now she walks to the door with her head held high
Just for a moment I caught her eye
As the big limousine pulls slowly, out of Alices drive
Refrain)
Oh, I don´t know why she´s leaving, ot where she´s gonna go
I guess she´s got her reasons but I just don´t wanna know
Cause for 24 years I´ve been living next doot to Alice
24 years just waitiing fot the chance
To tell her how I feel and maybe get s second glance
Not I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice
Strophe)
And Sally called back and asked hot I felt
And she said 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 for 24 years
And the big limousine disappeared....
Refrain)
Oh, I don´t know why she´s leaving, ot where she´s gonna go
I guess she´s got her reasons but I just don´t wanna know
Cause for 24 years I´ve been living next doot to Alice
24 years just waitiing fot the chance
To tell her how I feel and maybe get s second glance
Not I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice
No I´ll never get used to not living next door to Alice......
