Lyrics

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, slowly 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
