A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square

A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square - Vera Lynn

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

When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue

To interrupt our rendez-vous

I still remember how you smile 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 berkley square

I know 'cause i was there

That night in berkley square
