NAT KING COLE

NAT KING COLE - A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square lyrics

rate 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 Londontown

Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown.

How could he know that 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.

~interlude~

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.
