It's not the pale moon that - - ex-cites me,
that thrills and de-lights me. Oh No,- - - - - - it's just the near-ness of you.
It is-n't your sweet con-ver-sa-tion, that brings - - - - - this sen-sa-tion.
Oh No,- - - it's just the near-ness of you.
When - you're - in - my - arms, and I feel you so close to me.-

if you'll on-ly grant me the right to hold you ev-er so tight,
and - - to feel in the night, the near-ness of you
