  • Oh, oh
    Can you feel me when I think about you?
    With every breath I take
    Every minute, no matter what I do
    My world is an empty place

    Like I've been wanderin' the desert
    For a thousand days (oh-huh)
    Don't know if it's a mirage
    But I always see your face, baby

    I'm missing you so much
    Can't help it, I'm in love
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    I need you by my side
    Don't know how I'll survive
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    Oh oh oh, woah, woah

    The stars are burning
    I hear your voice in my mind (it's in my mind)
    Can't you hear me calling
    My heart is yearning
    Like the ocean that's running dry
    Catch me I'm falling

    It's like the ground is crumbling underneath my feet
    Won't you save me
    There's gonna be a monsoon
    When you get back to me
    Oh baby

    I'm missing you so much
    Can't help it, I'm in love (love)
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    I need you by my side (side)
    Don't know how I'll survive
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    Oh oh oh, woah woah

    So let this drought come to an end
    And may this desert flower again
    I'm so glad you found me
    Stick around me
    Baby, baby, baby, whoa
    It's a world of wonder
    With you in my life
    So hurry baby, don't waste no more time
    And I need you here
    I can't explain
    But a day without you
    Is like a year without rain
    Oh oh oh

    I'm missing you so much (much)
    Can't help it, I'm in love
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    I need you by my side (side)
    Don't know how I'll survive
    A day without you is like a year without rain
    Oh oh oh, woah woah

  • Joel from Boston, MaHmmm. This must be the remix. Not bad but I do prefer the slightly shorter version.
