Oscar Peterson Quartet - Autumn in New York lyrics

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 roués and gay divorces who lunch at the Ritz Will tell you that it's devine It's 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
