[00:00.00]Autumn In New York (LP版) - Bobby Short
[00:01.93]It's time to end my lonely holiday
[00:05.60]And bid the country a hasty farewell
[00:09.58]So on this gray and melancholy day
[00:15.46]I'll move to a Manhattan Hotel
[00:20.72]I'll dispense with my rose-colored chattels
[00:24.33]And prepare for my share of adventures and battles
[00:32.12]Here on the twenty-seventh floor
[00:37.71]Looking down at the city I hate and adore
[00:55.57]Autumn in New York
[00:58.51]Why does it seem so inviting
[01:05.37]Autumn in New York
[01:07.96]It brings the thrill of first-nighting
[01:12.32]Where glittering crowds and shimmering clouds
[01:16.91]In canyons of steel
[01:19.13]Are making me feel I'm home
[01:27.13]It's autumn in New York
[01:30.00]It brings a promise of new love
[01:36.49]Autumn in New York
[01:39.54]Is often mingled with pain
[01:47.98]Dreamers with empty hand
[01:52.84]May sigh for exotic land
[02:00.11]It's autumn in New York
[02:04.69]It's great to live again
[02:13.06]Where Jaded Rogues
[02:15.15]And Gay Divorces
[02:17.42]Who lunch at the Ritz
[02:19.53]Will tell you that it's divine
[02:29.96]It's autumn in New York
[02:33.47]Transforms the slums into Mayfair
[02:40.22]Autumn in New York
[02:42.32]You'll need no castle in Spain
[02:49.99]Lovers who bless the dark
[02:55.37]From benches in Central Park
[03:03.17]Greet autumn in New York
[03:07.75]It's great to live it again
