That certain night, the night we met,
there was magic abroad in the air
there were angel's dining at the Ritz
and a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square!

I may be right and 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
or 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 when we kissed and said goodnight
a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square!

I know 'cause I was there
