Tür an Tür mit Alice [English translation]

A friend called me and softly

He said, "You must already know

Mmh, must already know about Alice."

I hurried to the window and looked outside

A moving van was parked in front of the house

I couldn't believe my eyes

For Alice was there, too

I don't know where she's going or why

She must have her reasons and it's not my business anyway

But for as long as I remember I've been living next door to Alice

Almost every day I ran into her in the hall

Greeted her every time but she just smiled

It's hard to no longer be living next door to Alice

Why did I never end up with her

When it was just a wall that separated us?

Oh, just a wall separated me from Alice

Why did I never ask her a question?

Why did I never tell her how much I miss her?

I saw that smile on her face

Yet I never did

I don't know where she's going or why

She must have her reasons and it's not my business anyway

But for as long as I remember I've been living next door to Alice

Almost every day I ran into her in the hall

Greeted her every time but she just smiled

It's hard to no longer be living next door to Alice

I don't know where she's going or why

She must have her reasons and it's not my business anyway

But for as long as I remember I've been living next door to Alice

Almost every day I ran into her in the hall

Greeted her every time but she just smiled

It's hard to no longer be living next door to Alice

It's hard to no longer be living next door to Alice

Na na na na na na, na na na na na

Na na na na na na, na na na na na

But for as long as I remember I've been living next door to Alice

Na na na na na na, na na na na na

Na na na na na na, na na na na na

It's hard to no longer be living next door to Alice
