"Living Next Door to Alice" is a song co-written by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. Originally released by the Australian vocal harmony trio New World in 1972, the song charted at No. 35 on the Australian chart. The song later became a worldwide hit for British band Smokie.
The song is about a young man's long-standing love, Alice, who's also the girl next door and his neighbour of 24 years, which is left unrequited after she moves away. The protagonist had seen a limousine parked at Alice's home and begins to reflect on childhood memories and his friendship with Alice, and becomes heartbroken as he sees Alice get inside the limousine.
As he watches the car drive out of sight, the protagonist feels regret about two things:
Another female character in the song is Sally, another long-time neighbour of the main protagonist who is introduced early in the song. In the song's first verse, she reminds the protagonist of Alice's impending departure. Sally, who later tells the man that he now must get over Alice, then states that she is available. But the man fails to acknowledge her and reaffirms that he'll "never get used to not living next door to Alice."
LYRICS: Sally called when she got the word, And she said: "I suppose you've heard - About Alice". When I rushed to the window, And I looked outside, And I could hardly believe my eyes - As a big limousine rolled up Into Alice's drive... 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, 'Cos for twenty-four years I've been living next door to Alice. Twenty-four years just waiting for a chance, To tell her how I feel, and maybe get a second glance, Now I've got to get used to not living next door to Alice... We grew up together, Two kids in the park, We carved our initials, Deep in the bark, Me and Alice. Now she walks through the door, With her head held high, Just for a moment, I caugh...

Should we yet document audacity, your last allegations we write.
With yet another man-made miracle, this borders on the spiritual. It's time we came to fight.
And should be open our eyes then we'd know. That the lines we once drew in the sand turned to stone.
If we ever held back what we write... Then our message is clear, my dear: this all ends tonight.
Yes, we are. We're cutting close as you stare at the scenery. Truth, we write. Always colorful, cutting and cold.
Yes, we lie. And we see eye to eye through you stand at the feet of me. And so, tonight... means goodbye as the story was told.
CHORUS
Alice, Alice... the queen is raging. The Cheshire cat with his smile fading.
A pawn. Eight. Squares. Now her majesty. We're curious to know which hole you followed the white rabbit down
Yes, we are. We're losing some friends and we're changing the scenery. Truth, we find. Always colorful, cutting the cold.
Yes, we lied. We knew you were destined for underachieving. And so, tonight... Means goodbye as the story is told.
CHORUS
Alice, Alice... the queen is raging. The Cheshire cat with his smile fading.
A pawn. Eight. Squares. Now her majesty. We're curious to know which hole you followed the white rabbit down
We'd step through the looking glass now.
