Crazy English Summer - Faithless

Or should it be rain, rain, go away.....

It just won't stop! Weird light tonight

Click for youTUBE video

"Crazy English Summer"
Fields of fire that passed the train
The sky is victorious but here comes the rain
Friday is taking me home again,
And I've nothing but you on my mind.

Grass is greener without the pain,
I think that I'm changing but I'm just the same
My sun is a ascending again
And I've nothing but you on my mind

Sometimes I feel like I'm glad to be free,
Sometimes I still want your arms around me
Sometimes I'm glad to have left you behind,
The Crazy English Summer has put you back on my mind.
Life's a riot a lover a friend,
Pity the day that it has to end
Friday come speed me home again,
I've nothing but you on my Mind.

Sometimes I feel like i'm fine on my own,
Fifty Thousand miles from home.
Sometimes I'm weak and the past is my guide,
Summer returns and puts you back on my mind

I agree that the light is weird, gives it a model village feel, but I love the shot. Very surreal.

Wow, superb shot!

Wow!
Did you just look up and notice by chance you were at the perfect angle to take this AND have it reflected infront of you?
super.
Dave Wixx20-Jul-2007 04:18
An almost surreal fairy tale scene.
