It's not the pale moon that delights me,

that thrills and excites me, oh no.

It's just the nearness of you.



And it's not your sweet conversation 

that brings on 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.



With you I need no soft lights to enchant me

if you would only grant me the right

to hold you ever so tight

and to feel in the night, my love,

the nearness of you.
