[Verse 1]
It's just the nearness of you
Its not the pale moon that excites me, baby
That thrills and delights me
Oh no
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 2]
It isn’t your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation
Oh no
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 3]
When I'm in your arms
And I feel you so close, so close to me
Baby, all of those wildest dreams
They come true
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 4]
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll grant me
Ooh the right
To kiss and hold you so tight
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you
The nearness baby, the nearness
To feel, yes, the nearness of you
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you
Yeah, baby, the nearness of you
Of y’all
[Audience Applause]
It's just the nearness of you
Its not the pale moon that excites me, baby
That thrills and delights me
Oh no
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 2]
It isn’t your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation
Oh no
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 3]
When I'm in your arms
And I feel you so close, so close to me
Baby, all of those wildest dreams
They come true
Its just the nearness of you
[Verse 4]
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll grant me
Ooh the right
To kiss and hold you so tight
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you
The nearness baby, the nearness
To feel, yes, the nearness of you
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you
Yeah, baby, the nearness of you
Of y’all
