into Alice's drive

but I just don't want to know
E
'Cause for twenty four years
A
E
I've been living next door to Alice
A
Twenty four 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

We grew up together, two kids in the park

Carved our initials deep in the bark

Just for a moment, I caught her eye

As the big limousine pulled slowly

out of Alice's drive
