Gaze of Affection

[Verse] In the village dusk Your eyes do gleam Through the night's hush Love in a dream A whispered secret Across the breeze In your gaze The heart’s ease [Verse 2] By the baobab tree Our shadows meld Through the acacia leaves Truth is expelled With every look A story told In your eyes Love takes hold [Chorus] Oh The gaze of affection In your eyes So deep Like the river’s reflection Secrets they keep Through the night and the dawn Our silent song In the gaze of affection We belong [Verse 3] On the red earth path Your smile It grows By the fire's glow Love it shows Under the starlit sky Pure and wise In the look Love never lies [Verse 4] Hand in hand We walk In silent grace Through the fields of gold A tender embrace Every glance a promise Every look divine In the warmth of your eyes I resign [Chorus] Oh The gaze of affection In your eyes So deep Like the river’s reflection Secrets they keep Through the night and the dawn Our silent song In the gaze of affection We belong
