I step off the train
I’m walking down your street again
I passed 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
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
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
Like the deserts miss the rain
