A Nightingale Sang In Berkley Square
The Manhattan Transfer · Other Songs - The Manhattan Transfer
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.
(Bridge)
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 wild world seemed upside down.
The streets of town were paved with stars.
It was such a romantic affair.
And as we kissed and said Good-bye,
A Nightingale sang in Berkley Square.
Reprise
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 wild world seemed upside down.
The streets of town were paved with stars.
It was such a romantic affair.
And as we kissed and said Good-bye,
A Nightingale sang in Berkley Square.
