Sally called, when she got the word, |
![]() ![]() |
She said "I suppose you've heard |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
About Alice." |
![]() |
Well, I rushed to the window, |
![]() ![]() |
And I looked outside, |
![]() ![]() |
And I could hardly believe my eyes, |
![]() |
This big limousine pulled slowly |
![]() ![]() |
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'm feeling, |
![]() |
Maybe get a second glance, |
![]() |
Now I've gotta get used to not |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Living next door to Alice. |
![]() ![]() |
Grew up together, two kids in the park, |
![]() ![]() |
Carved 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 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 |
![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() |

Now I've gotta get used to not |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Living next door to Alice. |
![]() ![]() |
Sally called back, and asked how I felt, |
![]() ![]() |
She said "I know how to help... |
![]() ![]() |
You 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. |

Next door to Alice |
