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
Why 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 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
And I miss you

I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
And pass 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
Like the deserts miss the rain

Like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain

Like the deserts miss the rain
