A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square Lyrics - Stardust...the Great American Songbook: Volume Iii - Rod Stewart

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.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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.
