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 [bad word] 

 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 [bad word] 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
 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
 Past your door
 I can see 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

 I miss you and I miss you
 Like the deserts miss the rain
 And I miss you, yeah
 Like the deserts miss the rain
 Deserts miss the rain
 Like the deserts miss the rain
 Like the deserts miss the rain
 Like the deserts miss the rain
