A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
There was magic abroad in the air
I know 'cause I was there
I still remember how you smiled and said
There were angels dining at the Ritz
And like an echo far away
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The whole darn world seemed upside down
But I'm perfectly willing to swear
'Cause it happened one evening to me
That when you turned and smiled at me
Falls beneath the spell
That certain night, the night we met
Winter turns to spring
Every winding street in Mayfair
And as we kissed and said, "Goodnight"
I may be right, I may be wrong
To interrupt our rendezvous
How could he know we two were so in love?
As the tap dancing feet of Astaire
The moon that lingered over London town
Songbirds sing
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue
It was such a romantic affair
I know such enchantment can be
"Was that a dream or was it true?"
Our homeward step was just as light
The streets of town were paved with stars
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
