I step off the train

I'm walking down your street again

Past your door

But you don't live there anymore

It's years since you've been there

Now you've disappeared somewhere

Like outer space

You've found some better place

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

Could you be dead?

You always were two steps ahead of everyone

We'd walk behind while you would run

I look up at your house

And I can almost hear you shout down to me

Where I always used to be

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

Back on the train, I ask why did I come again?

Can I confess, I've been hanging round your old address?

The years have proved

To offer nothing since you've moved

You're long gone, but I can't move on

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain (yeah I miss you)

I step off the train

I'm walking down your street again

Past your door

I guess you don't live there anymore

It's years since you've been there

And now you've disappeared somewhere

Like outer space

You've found some better place

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain (I miss you)

And I miss you

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain (like the deserts miss the rain)

like the desets miss the rain

(Like the deserts miss the rain) and I miss you, yeah

(Like the deserts miss the rain) oh, how I miss you

(Like the deserts miss the rain)
