Sally called when she got the word
She said "I suppose you've heard
'bout Alice"
Well, I rushed to the window and I looked outside
And I could hardly believe my eyes
As a big limousine rode 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 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 and 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
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 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
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 twenty-four 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
'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 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
