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 a night, Afro blue. Elegant boy, Beautiful girl, Dancing for joy, Delicate whirl, Shades of delight, Cocoa hue, Rich as a night, Afro blue. Two young lovers are face to face, With undulating grace, They gently sway, Then slip away To some secluded place. Shades of delight, Cocoa hue, Rich as a night, Afro blue. Whispering trees Echo their sighs, Passionate pleas, Tender replies, Shades of delight; Cocoa hue, Rich as a night, Afro blue. Lovers on flight, Upward they glide, Burst at the height, Sloly subside, Shades of delight, Cocoa hue, Rich as a 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 a night, Afro blue. Shades of delight, Cocoa hue, Rich as a night, Afro blue. Shades of delight, Cocoa hue, Rich as a night, Afro blue.
