MISSING -- EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL

(**)  I step off the train I'm walkin' down your street again 
And pass 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  And I miss you (Like the deserts miss the rain) 
Could you be dead? You always were two steps ahead 
Of ev'ryone 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

Back on the train I ask why did I come again 
Can I confess? I've been hangin' 'round your old address
And the years have proved To offer nothin' since you moved
You're long gone But I can't move on  And I miss you 

(**)  

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