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

    General Comment:This song seems to be about nostalgia, regret and relief.
    It takes the listener on a whirlwind of emotion.
    Faithless' best song, ('yeah i said it!) and their best kept secret.

    General Comment:It's aload of bullshit that this song hasn't been commented on since 2005 yet Fall Out Boy sits up the top of the most popular lyrics. KIDS THESE DAYS.
    This ain't a scene ..
    SERIOUSLY who gives a fuck ?
    Faithless and Chicane keep making music that makes people feel.

    General Comment:People ascribe meanings to things. She is reminded of her past relationship, and she gets a flood of memories and emotion. Every summer, perhaps when she sees fields, or rain or grass, its a reminder, somewhat painful, but bearable.

    General Comment:i don't think it's a recent breakup cos she talks about how the summer puts him back on her mind. it's like summer has come round again and she remembers the relationship and it once was/used to be before it went bad. but i do think she's left home. gone away. she's going home cause she misses it. i think it's both. a break up and missing home.

    General Comment:this song is about a recent breakup and fresh wounds. the narrator obviously enjoys the freedom, but misses the security. this song was the best kept secret on the album, until it was released as a single. no harm done, i think, but truly one of Faithless's finer works.

    the vocalist/writer of this choon is Zoe Johnston, formerly of the electronic group Dusted.
