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   Oh, autumn in New York   It lifts you up when you run down      Yes, jaded rous and gay divorces   Who lunch at the Ritz   Will tell you that it's divine      This autumn in New York   Transforms the slums into Mayfair   Oh, autumn in New York   You'll need no castles in Spain      Yes, lovers that bless the dark   Oh, on the benches in Central Park   Greet autumn in New York   It's good to live it again      Autumn in New York   That brings the promise of new love   Autumn in New York   Is often mingled with pain      Dreamers with empty hands   They sigh for exotic lands   It's autumn in New York   It's good to live it again
