Jo Stafford - ’The Nearness of You’ - with pictures*****

Jo Stafford gives this wonderful love song by Hoagy Carmichael & Ned Washington very special treatment - In her own inimitable way. Lyrics - Music: Hoagy Carmichael and Ned Washington Lyrics: Its not the pale moon that excites me That thrills and delights me, oh no Its just the nearness of you It isnt your sweet conversation That brings this sensation, oh no Its just the nearness of you When youre 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 youll only grant me the right To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night the nearness of you I take no credit for the pictures used
