Dee Dee Bridgewater - Afro blue lyrics

Dream of a land my soul is from I hear a hand stroke on a drum Elegant boy, beautiful girl Dancing for joy elegant whirlShades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blueTwo young lovers dance face to face With undulating grace They gently sway, then slip away To some secluded placeShades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blueWhispering trees, echo their sighs Pa**ionate pleas, tender replies Lovers in flight upward they glide Burst at the height slowly subsideShades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blueAnd my slumbering fantasy a**umes reality Until it seems it's not a dream for two for you and meShades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue Oh, shades of delight, cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blueShades of delight Afro, Afro blue
