Autumn in New York,
why does it seem so exciting?
Autumn in New York,
it spells the thrill of first-knighting.

Shimmering clouds and glimmering crowds 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 long for exotic lands

But autumn in New York ...
it's good to live it again.
