Last night I dreamt a strange peculiar dream
A child slept underneath a great bird's wing
Laid on the ground
Where once was found
Until he woke and crawled away on hands and knees

Flying in my dream
Flying in my dream

A snake told stories to the child untrue
The child bent down and felt its poison tooth
Started to die
The bird did fly
Swallowed the snake to save the child and then he died

Flying in my dream
Flying in my dream

The dead bird lay
For three whole days
Then spread its wings
And flew away

I woke up early while the sun still slept
The strange dream circulating in my head
Stared at the ceiling
Pondered its meaning
The dream would not leave me although I left my bed

Flying in my dream
Flying in my dream

The dead bird lay
For three whole days
Then spread its wings
And flew away

In my dream
In my dream
My dream
