Текст песни Smokie - Living Next Door to Alice (саундтрек из сериала "Вершина озера / Top of the Lake")

[Verse 1]
Sally called
When she got the word
She said "I suppose you've heard
About Alice"

[Verse 2]
Well I rushed to the window
And I looked outside
But I could hardly believe my eyes
As a big limousine rolled up
Into Alice's drive

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, 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 twenty-four years
I've been living next door to Alice

[Chorus]
Twenty-four years
Just waitin' for a chance
To tell her how I feel
And maybe get a second glance
Now I've gotta get used to
Not living next door to Alice
(Who the Fuck is Alice?)
[Verse 3]
We grew up together
Two kids in the park
Carved our initials
Deep in the bark
Me and Alice

[Verse 4]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, 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 twenty-four years
I've been living next door to Alice

[Chorus]
Twenty-four years
Just waitin' for a chance
To tell her how I feel
And maybe get a second glance
Now I gotta get used to
Not living next door to Alice
[Verse 5]
Then Sally called back
And asked how I felt
And she said "I know how to help
Get over Alice"

[Verse 6]
She said "Now Alice is gone
But I'm still here
You know I've been waitin'
For twenty-four years"
And the big limousine disappeared

[Pre-Chorus]
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
'Cause for twenty-four years
I've been living next door to Alice

[Chorus]
Twenty-four years
Just waitin' for a chance
To tell her how I feel
And maybe get a second glance
But I'll never get used to not
Living next door to Alice
[Outro]
No, I'll never get used to
Not living next door to Alice
