DShe said I suppose you've heardE aboutA AliceE7
AWell I rushed to the window, well I looked outside
DI could hardly bEelieve my eyes,

I doAn't know why she's leaving

I guDess she's got her reasons
but I just don't want to know
'Cos forE twenty four years
I've been liviAng nE7ext door to Alice
TweAnty four years waiting for the chance
To tDell her how I feel
and maybe get a second glance,
Now I'veE got to get used to
not lDiving next dEoor to AAlice.E7

ANow she walks through the door, her head held high
DJust for a moment EI caught her eye -
The big limousine pulled out of AAlices E7drive.
I doAn't know why she's leaving

To tDell her how I feel
and maybe get a second glance,
