    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, 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 (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
    And now you've disappeared somewhere, like outer space
    You've found some better place
    And I miss you, yeah
    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)

    Now that was Toot Sweeeeet...
    The only thing missing was chatting with the lads, unless that was done on another upload...
    Amazing musicians as they've always been but I still prefer the original line up...
    But in saying that Nate has come in & filled in beautifully for the other guitarists who went on to replace the now late Boon Gould...
    I was gutted when I heard of Boons passing as he was not only a brilliant musician but a damn fine lyricist & he seemed such a quiet shy lad...
    I'm glad I got to see him & the original line up play back in the 80s & with each new line up since... I still look out for them whenever they're playing the UK, especially my native City of Glasgow as we always give the lads of Level 42 a night to remember during & after playing a night in Glasgow...
    Looking forward to seeing them again soon I hope & again my condolences to all of Boons family/friends & the members of Level 42 at the sad passing of Boon Gould on 30th April 2019...
    Rest In Peace Boon
    Gone But Not Forgotten

    Well - surprised! Never a big Level 42 fan (though have an album or 2), but EBTG were a favourite, and have always *loved* this song. Got to say they did a good job - kudos to Mike Lindup on the vocals there - wouldn't think he would've been able to 'fit' the Tracey Thorn vocals, but they fit this. Nice one. (Will always be a fan of the original though). Good guitar from Nathan King also.
