Lyrics

How strange it was, how sweet and strange There was never a dream to compare With that hazy crazy night we met When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square As hard am I be loud and fast Like a merry-go-round in a fair For we were dancing cheek to cheek And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square When dawn came stealing up all golden and blue To enter at our rendezvous 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 off Astaire And like an echo far away When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square When dawn came stealing up all golden and blue To enter at our rendezvous I still remember how you smiled and said "Was that a dream or was it true?" The streets of town were paved with stars It was such a romantic affair And as we kissed and said good night When a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square I know 'cause I was there That night in Berkeley Square
