Autumn in New York

Autumn in New York

Why does it seem so inviting

Autumn in New York

It spells the thrill of first-nighting



Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds

In canyons of steel

They're making me feel

I'm home



It's autumn in New York

That brings the promise of new love

Autumn in New York

Is often mingled with pain



Dreamers with empty hands

May sigh for exotic lands

It's autumn in New York

It's good to live it again



Autumn in New York

The gleaming rooftops at sundown

Autumn in New York

It lifts you up when you're let down



Jaded roué and gay divorcé

Who lunch at the Ritz

Will tell you that

It's divine



This autumn in New York

Transforms the slums into Mayfair

Autumn in New York

You'll need no castle in Spain



Lovers that bless the dark

On benches in Central Park

Greet Autumn in New York

It's good to live it again
