Lyrics: 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 came true I need no soft lights to enchant me If you will only grant me The right to hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night The nearness of you
Maya, your voice touched my heart deeply, right now I'm listening to you sing and it warms this calm moment. In the window I see Ipanema beach in Rio de Janeiro and congratulations, it certainly reached my ears here in Brazil. One day, with your musical talent and the sensitivity with which you navigate musical notes, you will certainly come to sing here. I wish you success, peace and much happiness. Evandro Sudério Ribeiro - Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
Maya, sua voz tocou profundamente meu coração, neste momento estou ouvindo você cantar e aquece este momento calmo. Na janela vejo a praia de Ipanema no Rio de Janeiro e você está de parabéns, certamente chegou aos meus ouvidos aqui no Brasil. Um dia com certeza com seu talento musical e sensibilidade com que passeias nas notas musicais, virás cantar aqui. Desejo sucesso, paz e muitas felicidades.

I am in awe! y'all fit together like a finger and a glove. There was a singer I had befriended a few years ago. He has since passed his name Eric Mercury he has a song That's yearning to be a hit "Backstairs Of My Life" please lend it your ear. Mercury has produced and written for Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway. Also had a duet with Roberta flack that was written with Stevie Wonder. Please listen to the version by Kenny Rankin. Eric also has his version which is a delight also.
Great performance, and a wonderful voice! Guitar right on spot! I love such intimate performances, just a great voice and a guitar played skillfully and supportive. Bravo from Germany!
This has always been one of my favorite songs. I fiirst heard it sung by Barbra Streisand, but Maya is without a doubt the best I've ever heard. Thank you!
