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  

When dawn came stealing up, all golden blue, 
To interrupt our rendezvous. 
How I 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
