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 Londontown

Poor puzzled moon he wore a frown

How could he know that 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 rendez-vous

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 Fr-ed Astaire

And like an echo far away

A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
