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 here
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
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
They fell behind
but 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
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
Years have proved
to offer nothing
since you've moved
You're long gone
I can't move on
And I miss you
And I miss you
And I miss you
like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
I step off the train
I'm walking down
your street again
Past your door
but you don't live
there anymore
