Songtext: Living Next Door To Alice
Written by Chinn & Chapman
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
I could hardly believe my eyes,
The big limousine moved 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 the 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.
The big limousine pulled slowly out of the Alice's drive
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 the 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,
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.
Then 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 waiting for the chance
To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance
But I never get used to not living next door to Alice
No I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
