The Nearness Of You (Album Version)

The Nearness Of You (Album) - Sarah Vaughan; Orchestra under the direction of Joe Lipman

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

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
