Cat Stevens - Freezing Steel lyrics

Freezing steel

I've flown the house of freezingthe house of freezing steel

And though my body's back I know it can't be real

'cause I've been on that house without a guiding wheel

The house of freezing steel

Oh where's it goingpicked me up at seven

When my eyes were weak from the light of the morning

Oh sister won't you tell me what a man might want to know

This madness is fineyes if you're mad at the time

Back on the house of freezingthe house of freezing steel

The tied my body upI'm forced to eat my meal

A cold plate of lamb and cold potatoes too

Now what's a soul to do

Oh lord abovebrother won't you tell me

Is this a eucharistic dove

'cause I've been waiting for the right one to appear

But I've seen it in your faceand baby this ain't the place

Up on the house of freezingthe house of freezing steel.

I made my mind up then to get me to the wheel

I made the cabin doorthe pilot turned around

He said we're venus bound

Oh please take me home

After all I'm only human and the earth is where I belong

I must have looked pitiful to this freak without a face

'cause as he touched my head I saw myself back in bed

I've flown the house of freezingthe house of freezing steel

And though my body's back I know it can't be real

'cause I've been on that house without a guiding wheel

The house of freezing steel
