Living Next Door To Alice
Sally called, when she got the word,
She said \"I suppose you've heard
About Alice.\"
So, I rushed to the window, and I looked outside,
And I could hardly believe my eyes,
This big limousine pulled slowly into Alice's drive.
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,
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
24 years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how I'm feeling, maybe get a second glance,
Now I've gotta get used to not living next door to Alice.
Grew up together, two kids in the park,
Carved our initials deep in the bark
Me and Alice.
Now she walks to 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.
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,
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
24 years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how I'm feeling, maybe get a second glance,
Now I've gotta get used to not living next door to Alice.
Sally called back, and asked how I felt,
She said \"I know how to help
You get over Alice.\"
She said \"Now Alice is gone, but I'm still here
You know I've been waiting 24 years.\"
And the 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,
'Cause for 24 years I've been living next door to Alice.
24 years, just waitin' for a chance,
To tell her how I'm feeling, 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
Significado de la letra
Sally contacted me with news about Alice, sparking a mix of curiosity and disbelief within me. Watching a grand limousine glide into Alice's driveway, I pondered on her sudden departure and destination. For 24 long years, Alice has been my neighbor, a constant presence I took for granted. Now faced with the reality of her absence, I struggle to adapt to this new void in my life.
Growing up as childhood friends, we shared secrets etched into tree barks and cherished moments in the park. As I watch Alice leave with grace and determination, I realize the missed opportunities to express my true feelings and seek a closer connection. The limousine's departure marks the end of an era, leaving me to grapple with the uncertainty of Alice's departure and the emptiness next door.
In Sally's attempt to console me, the lingering truth remains that Alice has moved on, while I remain in a state of longing and regret. The realization sets in that Alice's absence will forever alter the landscape of my existence, forcing me to navigate life without her nearby. The bittersweet melody of nostalgia and unspoken emotions fills the space once occupied by the comforting presence of living next door to Alice.
