Lizz Wright - 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 Delicate whirl Shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as a night Afro blue Two young lovers dance face to face With undulating grace They gently sway then slip away To some secluded place Whispering trees Echo their sighs Pa**ionate please 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 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 Oh, shades of delight Cocoa hue Rich as the night Afro blue
