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 good-night A nightingale sang A nightingale sang I know 'cause i was there That night in berkeley square
