A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square

That certain night
The night we met
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angels dining
At the Ritz

And a nightingale sang
In Berkeley Square

I may be right, I may be wrong
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
That when you turned and smiled at me

A nightingale sang
In Berkeley Square

The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon
He wore a frown
How could he know we two were so in love?
The whole dang world
Seemed upside down

The streets of town
Were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And as we kissed and said goodnight

A nightingale sang
In Berkeley Square

When dawn came stealing up
All gold and blue
To interrupt our rendezvous
I still remember how you smiled and said
"Was that a dream?
Or was it true?"

Our homeward step
Was just as light
As the dancing of Fred Astaire
And like an echo far away

A nightingale sang
In Berkeley Square
