| Lyrics: | 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.
~interlude~
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 fred
astaire,
And like an echo far away
A nightingale sang in berkeley square. |
