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

but I could hardly believe my eyes

as a big limousine rolled 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 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

We grew up together two kids in the park

we carved our initials deep in the bark me and Alice

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

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 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

Sally called back and asked how 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 twenty-four years

and the big limousine disappeared

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 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

no I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
