Living Next Door to Alice |
| Sally called when she got the word |
| And she said «I suppose you’ve heard, 'bout Alice» |
| Well I rushed to the window, and I looked outside |
| But I could hardly believe my eyes |
| As a big limousine rode up onto Alice’s 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 |
| 'Cos for 24 years I’ve been living next door to Alice |
| 24 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 |
| (chorus) |
| 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 24 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 |
| 'Cos for 24 years I’ve been living next door to Alice |
| 24 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 |
