Ah, this heart of mine it beat loud and fast
But I’m perfectly willing to swear
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
Poor, puzzled moon he wore a frown
It was such a romantic affair
How strange it was, how sweet and strange
When dawn came stealin’ up all gold and blue
The whole darn world seemed upside-down
With that hazy, crazy night we met
There was never a dream to compare
And as we kissed and said good night
As the dancin’ feet of Astaire
When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
That when you turned and smiled at me
For we were dancin’ cheek to cheek
How could he know we two were so in love
And just like an echo far away
The moon that lingered over London town
There were Angels dinin’ at the Ritz
I may be right, may be wrong
Was that a dream or was it true?
Our homeward step was just as light
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
The streets uptown were paved with stars
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
Like a merry-go-round in a fair
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
I still remember how you smiled and said
To interrupt our rendezvous
