[00:08.280]Sally called when she got the word
[00:12.730]And she said I suppose you've heard
[00:19.540]About Alice
[00:23.310]When I rushed to the window
[00:25.370]And I looked outside
[00:27.930]And I could hardly believe my eyes
[00:31.700]As a big limousine rolled up
[00:35.210]Into Alice's drive
[00:38.660]Oh I don't know why she's leaving
[00:40.900]Or where she's gonna go
[00:42.790]I guess she's got her reasons
[00:44.540]But I just don't want to know
[00:46.570]'Cos for twenty-four years
[00:48.410]I've been living next door to Alice
[00:54.330]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[00:58.220]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[01:01.860]Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice
[01:10.050]We grew up together
[01:12.140]Two kids in the park
[01:14.470]We carved our initials
[01:15.950]Deep in the bark
[01:21.280]Me and Alice
[01:25.040]Now she walks through the door
[01:27.290]With her head held high
[01:29.490]Just for a moment I caught her eye
[01:33.170]As a big limousine pulled slowly
[01:36.430]Out of Alice's drive
[01:39.930]Oh I don't know why she's leaving
[01:42.060]Or where she's gonna go
[01:43.940]I guess she's got her reasons
[01:45.780]But I just don't want to know
[01:47.680]'Cos for twenty-four years
[01:49.540]I've been living next door to Alice
[01:55.610]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[01:59.170]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[02:02.800]Now I gotta get used to not living next door to Alice
[02:11.190]And sally called back and asked how I felt
[02:15.470]And she said I know how to help
[02:21.910]Get over Alice
[02:25.370]She said now Alice is gone
[02:28.020]But I'm still here
[02:29.900]You know I've been waiting
[02:31.700]For twenty-four years
[02:35.390]And a big limousine dissapeared
[02:39.630]I don't know why she's leaving
[02:41.320]Or where she's gonna go
[02:43.250]I guess she's got her reasons
[02:44.990]But I just don't want to know
[02:46.990]'Cos for twenty-four years
[02:48.560]I've been living next door to Alice
[02:54.680]Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance
[02:58.480]To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
[03:01.940]But I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
[03:09.550]Now I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
