When true lovers
meet in Mayfair
so the legends tell
Song birds sing
winter turns to spring
Every winding street in Mayfair
falls beneath the spell
I know such
enchantment can be
cause it happened
one evening to me
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 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
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 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
