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
(It's not the pale moon that excites me that thrills and delights me
Oh no no) it's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms
