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 Berkley 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 Berkley 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 Berkley Square 

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 Berkley Square 

I know 'cause I was there 
That night in Berkley Square
