Sally called when she got the word,
And she said: "I suppose you’ve heard about Alice"
When I rushed to the window and I looked outside
And 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 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
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 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

And 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"
And a 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 want to know
’Cos 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 gotta get used to not living next door to Alice

No I’ll never get used to not living next door to Alice
