Afro Blue Lyrics

[00:10.42] Dream of a land my soul is from
[00:15.62] I hear a hand stroke on a drum
[00:20.68] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[00:25.87] Rich as the night afro blue
[00:31.89]
[00:35.94] Elegant boy, beautifil girl
[00:41.16] Dancing for joy elegant whirl
[00:46.25] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[00:51.44] Rich as the night afro blue
[00:57.31]
[01:01.20] Two young lovers dance face to face
[01:04.06] With undulating grace
[01:06.61] They gently sway, then slip away
[01:09.28] To some secluded place
[01:12.03] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[01:17.18] Rich as the night afro blue
[01:24.22]
[01:27.11] Whispering trees, echo their sighs
[01:32.34] Passionate pleas, tender replies
[01:37.42] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[01:42.51] Rich as the night afro blue
[01:48.26]
[02:16.86] Lovers in flight upward they glide
[02:21.76] Burst at the height slowly subside
[02:26.66] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[02:31.61] Rich as the night afro blue
[02:37.75]
[02:41.17] And my slumbering fantasy assumes reality
[02:46.32] Until it seems it's not a dream for two for you and me
[02:51.59] Shades of delight, cocoa hue
[02:56.53] Rich as the night afro blue
[03:00.82]
