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 darn 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 tap-dancing

feet of Astaire

And like an

echo far away

a nightingale sang

in berkeley square

I know

'cause I was there

that night

in berkeley square...
