Dianne Reeves - Afro Blue lyrics

rate me

Dream of a land my soul is from

I hear a hand stroke on a drum

Beautiful boy

Elegant girl

Dancing for joy

Beautiful 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

Shades of delight

Cocoa hue

Rich as a night

Afro blue

Whispering trees

Echo their sighs

Passionate pleas

Tender replies

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 the night

Afro blue

Shades of delight

Cocoa hue

Rich as the night

Afro blue

Shades of delight

Cocoa hue

Rich as a night

Afro blue

Shades of delight

Cocoa hue

Rich as the night
