It's not the pale moon that excites me That thrills and delights me Oh no, it's just the nearness of you Isn't your sweet conversation That brings me this sensation Oh no, it's just the nearness of you When I'm in your arms
And I feel you so close to me All my wondrous dreams come true I need no soft lights to enchant me If you only grant me the right To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night The nearness of you
