A man lives above
A couple below
A gay from above
With someplace to go

Is there anywhere that can compare
With London on a night like this

A bench in the park
A girlfriend to meet
A kiss in the dark
With someone who's sweet

Why there's romance in this gay old street
In London on a night like this

Got the table where you're able
To discreetly hold her hand
Do your wooing to the crooning
Of a sentimental band

The glittering lights
As homeward we went
A wonderful night
A wonderful friend

There's no telling where it's going to end
In London on a night like this
In London on a night like this
