Sally called when she got the word. |
|
She said I suppose you've heard |
|
|
When I rushed to the window |
|
and I looked the outside, |
|
I could hardly believe my eyes. |
|
As big limosine rolled up |
|
|
|
|
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving |
|
|
|
I guess she's got reasons, |
|
|
but I just don't want to know. |
|
|
|
I've been living next door to Alice |
|
|
|
24 years just waiting for a 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 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now she walks to the door |
|
|
Just fo a moment, I cought her eyes. |
|
As a big limosine pulled slowly, |
|
|
|
|
Oh, I don't know why she's leaving |
|
|
|
I guess she's got reasons, |
|
|
but I just don't want to know. |
|
|
|
I've been living next door to Alice |
|
|
|
24 years just waiting for a chance |
|
|
to tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance. |
|
|
Now, I gotta 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. |
|
|
She said now Alice has gone |
|
|
You know I've been waiting |
|
|
And a big limosine disappeared. |
|
|
|
I don't know why she's leaving |
|
|
|
I guess she's got her reasons, |
|
|
but I just don't want to know. |
|
|
|
I've been living next door to Alice |
|
|
|
24 years just waiting for a chance |
|
|
to tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance. |
|
|
But, I'll got to get used to not |
|
|
living next door to Alice |
|
|
|
No, I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice. |
