I step off the train I'm walkin' down your street again

And past your door but 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

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 yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain

Back on the train I ask why did I come again

Can I confess I've been hangin' 'round your old address?

And the years have proved to offer nothin' since you moved

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

And I miss you yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain

And I miss you, yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain

Oh, I miss you, yeah

Like the deserts miss the rain
