i 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
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
and 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
i step off the train
i'm walking down your street again
and past your door i guess
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 yeah like
the deserts miss the rain
and i miss you and i miss you
like the deserts miss the rain
and i miss you yeah like
the deserts miss the rain
the deserts miss the rain
like the deserts miss the rain
and i miss you yeah
like the deserts miss the rain
