Lizz Wright - Salt

Afro-Blue

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
Passionate 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
