[00:09.180]Sally called when she got the word
[00:13.630]And she said I suppose you've heard
[00:20.440]About Alice
[00:24.210]When I rushed to the window
[00:26.270]And I looked outside
[00:28.830]And I could hardly believe my eyes
[00:32.600]As a big limousine rolled up
[00:36.110]Into Alice's drive
[00:39.560]Oh I don't know why she's leaving
[00:41.800]Or where she's gonna go
[00:43.690]I guess she's got her reasons
[00:45.440]But I just don't want to know
[00:47.470]'Cos for twenty-four years
[00:49.310]I've been living next door to Alice
[00:55.230]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[00:59.120]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[01:02.760]Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice
[01:10.950]We grew up together
[01:13.040]Two kids in the park
[01:15.370]We carved our initials
[01:16.850]Deep in the bark
[01:22.180]Me and Alice
[01:25.940]Now she walks through the door
[01:28.190]With her head held high
[01:30.390]Just for a moment I caught her eye
[01:34.070]As a big limousine pulled slowly
[01:37.330]Out of Alice's drive
[01:40.830]Oh I don't know why she's leaving
[01:42.960]Or where she's gonna go
[01:44.840]I guess she's got her reasons
[01:46.680]But I just don't want to know
[01:48.580]'Cos for twenty-four years
[01:50.440]I've been living next door to Alice
[01:56.510]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[02:00.070]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[02:03.700]Now I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice
[02:12.090]And sally called back and asked how I felt
[02:16.370]And she said I know how to help
[02:22.810]Get over Alice
[02:26.270]She said now Alice is gone
[02:28.920]But I'm still here
[02:30.800]You know I've been waiting
[02:32.600]For twenty-four years
[02:36.290]And a big limousine dissapeared
[02:40.530]I don't know why she's leaving
[02:42.220]Or where she's gonna go
[02:44.150]I guess she's got her reasons
[02:45.890]But I just don't want to know
[02:47.890]'Cos for twenty-four years
[02:49.460]I've been living next door to Alice
[02:55.580]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[02:59.380]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[03:02.840]But I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
[03:10.450]Now I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
