I step off the train I'm walkin’ down your street again And pass 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 Oh (Like the deserts miss the rain).
Could you be dead? You always were two steps ahead Of ev’ryone 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 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 Oh-oh (Like the deserts miss the rain) And I miss you, yeah (Like the deserts miss the rain) And I miss you.
