The Nearness Of You - John Gary

The moon is high but I don’t need the moon

Its silver spell finds me more or less immune

Simply because

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
