Sally called up, when she got the word. She said I suppose youve heard about Alice So I ran to the window and I looked outside And I could hardly believe my eyes As a big Limousine pulled up into Alices drive Now I dont know why shes leavin, or where shes gonna go Im sure she has her reasons, but I dont wanna know Because for twentyfour years Ive been livin next door to Alice For twentyfour years Ive been waitin for a chance To tell her that I love her, try to start up a romance For twentyfour years Ive been livin next door to Alice We grew up together two kids in the park We carved our initials deep I the bark Me and Alice Now she walks to the window with her head held high And just for a moment I caught her eye Then the big Limousine starts to pull out of Alices drive Sally called me back she asked me how I felt She said I think I know how I can help you forget about Alice She said Alice is gone, but Im still here And Ive been waitin for twentyfour years Then the big limousine just disappeared
