A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square
Eric Maschwitz, Manning Sherwin
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 London Town
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know we two were so in love?
The whole darned 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
And like an echo far away
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
