Artist: Bobbie Gentry Album: Chickasaw County Child
Lyrics
I had a most distressing dream last night I dreamed I was a crystal bird Caught in perpetual flight
I'd ascend and glide and descend and ride On the wind and never alight I had a most distressing dream last night
Glass enclosed, exposed wherever I flew With no control and a crystal soul That one could see right thru
No ethereal nest where I could rest I was frightened by what I knew That my two crystal legs were broken in two
When I awoke my heart was beating fast As if all night and endless flight An eternity had passed
As I shook my head and slipped from my bed Released from the prism, at last I stepped upon a bit of shattered glass
