Autumn in New York

Why does it seem so exciting (inviting)

Autumn in New York

It spells the thrill of first-knighting



Shimmering clouds - glimmering crowds (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 a (the) promise of new love

Autumn in New York

Is often mingled with pain



Dreamers with empty hands

(They) All sigh for exotic lands



(But) It's autumn in New York

It's good to live it again



This autumn in New York

Transforms the slums into Mayfair

Autumn in New York

You'll need no castles in Spain



Lovers that bless the dark

On benches in Central Park



(But) It's autumn in New York

It's good to live it again



(- in New York)
