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 wanna know
'cuz for twenty-four years i've been living next door
to alice
twenty-four years, just waiting for a chance,
tell her how i feel, maybe get a second glance;
now i've got to get used to not living next door
to alice (alice? who the fuck is alice?)
