My African Queen

My true African Queen 
with the beauty I've never seen 
The one who got me in this 
scene 
On your love I can always lean 

Can it be your soothing touch 
that vanishes away all the pain 
in my heart, increasing 
the love intensity I have for 
you. 

Is it your meandering body 
that has got my love flowing 
in you like water in the river 
finding no way out 

Can it be your dazzling smile 
that weakens me, brightening 
up my day that makes me fall 
More and more for you 

This love that I feel, 
Is It the love from you 
Or is it your sparkling beauty 
that reflects all the love I have 
for you right back to me 

Can it be your melodic voice 
that ingresses in my ears 
that causes my heart to dance 
This joy In me is no pretense 

Is it the softness and the 
juiciness 
of your lips that quench my 
thirst 
for love whenever we kiss 
this, always brings out the bliss 

My true African Queen 
Your love I forever want to feel 
You are my full meal 
For you I'd kill 
My true african Queen
