London by night is a wonderful sight
|
There is magic abroad in the air
|
I'm often told that the streets turn into gold
|
When the moon shines on * Circus and Square *
|
|
Deep in the dark that envelops the park
|
There's romance in each cigarette glow
|
Down by the Thames, lights that sparkle like gems
|
Seem to wink at each girl and her beau
|
|
Up comes the moon when the city's asleep
|
He's not alone, for it seems
|
Somewhere up there stands an angel to keep her watch
|
While each Londoner dreams
|
|
My love and I saw the sun leave the sky
|
Then we kissed in the fast-fading light
|
Most people say they love London by day
|
But lovers love London by night
|
