Song birds sing; Winter turns to Spring. Every winding street in Mayfair falls beneath the spell. I know such enchantment could be for it happened one evening to me. [VERSE 1] That certain night The night we met There was magic abroad in the air.   There were an  -  gels  di  -  ning at the Ritz   And a nightingale sang in Berke - ley    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 Berke - ley   Square. [CHORUS 1] 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. [VERSE 2] The streets of town were paved with stars It was such a romantic affair   And as    we   kissed and said "good-night" A   nightingale sang in Berke - ley   Square [CHORUS 2] 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?" [VERSE 3] Our homeward step was just as light As the dancing of Fre-ed Astaire      Gdim                        Bdim7 And like  an      -  cho far - way    nightingale sang in Berke - ley . . . A nightingale sang in Berke - ley . . . A nightingale sang in   Berke-ley  Square .
