Rhythm's Whispered Flame

In the midnight glow of Delta nights Where the cotton fields whisper taintious sighs A rhythm rose from the heart's deep fire Blues in the blood lifting spirits higher Voices like velvet wrapping round the soul Grooves that sway like lovers in the rain Emotional waves crashing on the shore Mood as the Mississippi forevermore Oh, rhythm and blues, you're the heartbeat of us Soulful and true in the fire we trust From the roots of the struggle to the stars we reach Your melodies heal what the world can't teach R&B singing low, singing strong In every note of where we all belong Horns cry out like freedoms call them bound Bass lines thumping, shaking sacred ground Syncopated steps, we're all in this together In the smoke-filled rooms Electric dreams chasing away the bloom Intimate whispers, romantic and raw Melancholy tears that the night outlaws Polished grooves where the pain turns to gold African echoes and stories untold Oh, rhythm and blues, you're the heartbeat of us Soulful and true in the fire we trust From the roots of the struggle to the stars we reach Your melodies heal what the world can't teach R&B singing low, singing strong In every note of where we all belong R&B singing low, singing strong In every note of where we all belong The Motown shine and heal souls embrace Funk in the veins keeping up the pace Vocal fire, drums that never cease From shadows to eternity's peace We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow In your arms R&B, we finally know We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow We're the groove, the emotion, the endless flow
