I step off the train.
I’m walk ing down your street a gain
and past your ’ry door,
but you don’t live there an y more.
It’s years since you’ve been there.
and Now you’ve dis ap peared some where
like out er space.
You’ve found some bet ter place.
And I miss you
like the (G)des erts miss the rain.
And I miss you

I Could you be dead?
You al ways were two steps a head
and of ev ’ry one.
We’d walk be hind while you would run.
I look up at your house,
and I can al most hear you shout
down to me where
I al ways used to be.
And I miss you
like the (G)des erts miss the rain.
And I miss you
like the (G)des erts miss the rain.
And Back on the train,
I ask, “Why did I come a gain?”
Can I con fess
I’ve been hang ing a round your old ad dress?
And the years have proved
to of fer noth ing since you moved.
You’re long con gone,
I’ve been hang ing a round your old ad dress?
but I can’t move on.
And I miss you
like the (G)des erts miss the rain.
And I miss you
like the (G)des erts miss the rain.
I step off the train.
I’m (G)walk ing down your street a gain
and past your door.
I guess (Em)you don’t live there an y more.
It’s (Am7)years since you’ve been there,
and now you’ve dis ap peared some (Fmaj7)where
