Afro Blue |
Dream of a land my soul is from |
I hear a hand stroke on a drum |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
Elegant boy, beautiful girl |
Dancing for joy delicate whirl |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
Two young lovers face to face |
With undulating grace |
They gently sway, then slip away |
To some secluded place |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
Whispering trees, echo their sighs |
Passionate pleas, tender replies |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
Lovers in flight upward they glide |
Burst at the height slowly subside |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
And my slumbering fantasy assumes reality |
Until it seems it’s not a dream the two are you and me |
Shades of delight, cocoa hue |
Rich as the night afro blue |
