Missing Songtext
von Everything but the Girl

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
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, oh
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 round your old address
And the years have proved
To offer, nothing since you′ve moved
You're long gone, but I can′t move on

And I miss you, oh
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 past 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

And I miss you

You 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
The deserts miss the rain

Like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you, yeah
Like the deserts miss the rain
Ohh, I miss you
