(Eric Maschwitz & Manning Sherwin)
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

Oh how could he know we two were so in love

The whole wide world was upside down
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair

And as we kissed and said goodbye
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square


A nightingale sang. A nightingale sang

The streets of town


Were paved with stars


It was such a romantic affair
And as we kissed and said goodbye
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
