[Verse 1]
It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

[Verse 2]
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

[Verse 3]
When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

[Verse 4]
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
