London By Night

Wherever my footsteps may wonder

It's still the same moon shining down

But I can't forget, when I saw the sunset

And the moonrise on old London town

London by night is a wonderful sight

There is magic abroad in the air

I'm often told that the streets are gold

When the moon shines on circus and square

Deep in the dark that envelops the park

There's romance in each cigarette's 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

Ah ah ah ah ah, ah, ah

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
