Cold Steel

Strawbs - Cold Steel



Lonely, have you ever felt lonely

Like you're floating on a deep sea

And the world is somewhere else?

And when you're trying to disguise it

It only makes it deepen

Trying to pretend will only weigh you down



Cold steel

Cold, cold steel



Searching, is this why everybody's searching

Looking to the sky

To try to touch a star

And when they get it in their hand

They never want to lose it

They get a monkey on their back and a pocketful of sand



Good times, I heard about the good times

I read it in a book

It sounded alright

But then I thought I saw a stranger

So I had to give chase.

She stabbed me in the back with a smile across her face
