Saw her once
Saw her twice
Each time I was mesmerized, hypnotized
By the sight of you.
My heart was filled with delight
So graceful, so sweet
So royal, so unique
My tongue was frozen
I could not speak.
In my dreams
As real as they seem
You’re my friend, my lover
My African queen
Eyes that will melt any man’s soul
Lips so full, so sweet
We share love that goes real deep
Skin so soft, so smooth, so dark.
We’ve found the secret path to each other’s heart.
When I awaken, I am all alone
I thank God for a love he has shone to me in my dreams.
In my dream you will always be mine.
In reality, I’ll love you the next lifetime.
