Autumn in New York
Vernon Duke
Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so inviting?
Yes, autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-knighting
The glittering crowds and shimmering clouds
In canyons of steel they're making me feel
I'm home
Yes, it's autumn in New York
It brings a promise of new love
I said autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain
Dreamers with empty hands
They sigh for exotic lands
Oh, but it's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
I'm so glad to be back in New York
Sweet New York, sweet New York
Sweet New York
When the leaves are brown, oh
That's an autumn town
New York, oh, sweet New York, ha ha
Oh, it's so good to be back, whoa, mhm
