A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square |
When two lovers meet in Mayfair, so the legends tell, |
Songbirds sing; |
winter turns to spring. |
Every winding street in Mayfair falls beneath the spell. |
I know such enchantment can be, 'cos 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 rendezvous, |
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 'cos I was there, |
That night in Berkeley Square |
