Chris Norman - Living Next Door To Alice lyrics

rate me

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

As a big limousine rolled up into Alice's drive

Chorus

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,

Ah me and Alice

Now she walks through the door with her head held high

Just for a moment, I caught her eye

As the big limousine pulled slowly out of Alice's drive

To Chorus

Sally called back and asked how I felt

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 the big limousine disapeared

To Chorus

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