step off the train
i'm walking 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 disappear
somewhere like outer space
you find 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
you walk behind while you were on
i look out for 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 hanging round your old address
the years have proved
to offer nothing since you 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 yeah
like the deserts miss the rain
