It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me ooh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation oohohohooh 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 light 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
It's not the pale moon that excites me
The thrills and delights me oohooh no
Yes just the nearness you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation oohooh no yes
Just the nearness of you
When you in my arms
And I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true yeaheah hear me
I need no sofffuhuuh lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight yeeeeah babe
And to feel in the night baby 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 light 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
