Song lyrics

Sally called when she got the word.
She said, "I suppose you've heard
About Alice?"
So I rushed to the window, and I looked outside.
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 want to know,
'Cos 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've got to 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 want to know,
'Cos 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've got to 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 for twenty-four years..."
And a big limousine dissapeared...

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,
'Cos 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'll never get used
To not living next door to Alice!

Now I'll never get used
To not living next door to Alice...
