Missing

I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again and past your door
But you don't live there any more
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 around your old address
And the years have proven 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
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
Like the deserts miss the rain
