Mel Tormé - A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square (Live 1996)



[Verse 1]
When two lovers meet in Mayfair, so the legends tell
Songbirds sing, and winter turns to spring
Every winding street in Mayfair falls beneath the spell
I know such enchantment can be, 'cause it happened one evening to me

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
Well, I may be right, then again, 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

[Bridge]
The moon that lingered over London town
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know that we were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down

[Outro]
The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair
And when we kissed and said 'goodnight'
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
A nightingale sang in Berkeley
A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
