Living Next Door to Alice

Living Next Door to Alice (住在愛麗絲隔壁) - Heinz Winckler/Nicholis Louw

Written by：Mike Chapman/Nicky Chinn

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 twentyfour years

I've been living next door to Alice

Twentyfour 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

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 twentyfour years

I've been living next door to Alice

Twentyfour 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

Get over Alice

She said now Alice is gone

But I'm still here

You know I've been waiting

For twentyfour years

And a big limousine dissapeared

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 twentyfour years

I've been living next door to Alice

Twentyfour years just waiting for a chance

To tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance

But I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice

Now I'll never get used to not living next door to Alice
