Afro Blue Lyrics - Soul Serenade - The Derek Trucks Band

Dream of a land my soul is from 

I hear a hand stroke on a drum 

Elegant boy, beautiful girl 

Dancing for joy elegant whirl 

Shades of delight, cocoa hue 

Rich as the 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 the night Afro blue 

Whispering trees, echo their sighs 

Passionate pleas, tender replies 

Lovers in flight upward they glide 

Burst at the height slowly subside 

Shades of delight, cocoa hue 

Rich as the night Afro blue 

And my slumbering fantasy assumes reality 

Until it seems it's not a dream for two for 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 

Shades of delight Afro, Afro blue
