It's not the pale moon that excites me

That thrills and delights me, oh no

It's just the nearness of you



It isn't your sweet conversation

That brings this sensation, oh no

It's just the nearness of you



When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me

All my wildest dreams come true



I need no soft lights to enchant me

If you'll only grant me the right

To hold you ever so tight

And to feel in the night the nearness of you
