Sally called when she got the word
And she said, "I suppose you've heard... about Alice?"
ย
When I rushed to the window and I looked outside
And I could hardly believe my eyes
As a big limousine rolled up, into Alice's drive
ย
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 want to know
'Cause for 24 years
I've been living next door to Alice
ย
24 years just waiting for a chance
To tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance
Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice
ย
We grew up together, two kids in the park
We carved our initials, deep in the bark
Me and Alice
ย
Now she walks through the door, with her head held high
Just for a moment, I caught her eye
As a big limousine pulled slowly, out of Alice's drive
ย
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 want to know
'Cause for 24 years
I've been living next door to Alice
ย
24 years just waiting 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
ย
And Sally called back and asked how I felt
And she said, "I know how to help
ย
Get over Alice"
ย
She said, "Now Alice is gone, but I'm still here"
ย
You know I've been waiting for 24 years
And a big limousine disappeared
ย
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 want to know
'Cause for 24 years
I've been living next door to Alice
ย
24 years just waiting 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
ย
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
