[Verse 1]
Why do I just wither and forget all resistance
When you and your magic pass by
My heart's in a dither, dear
When you're at a distance
But when you are near, oh my
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 2]
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
