Women In New York - Lord Kitchener

Autumn in New York Why does it seem so inviting? Autumn in New York It spells the thrill of first-knighting 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 They sigh for exotic lands It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again This autumn in New York Transforms the slums into Mayfair Autumn in New York You'll need no castles in Spain Lovers that bless the dark On benches in Central Park It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again

Thanksgiving day's been put away And the final leaves have floated to the ground But landing on a bed of snow feels warm somehow We've said goodbye to all the friends and family we soon see again Go to sleep and wake up to the brand new scene Then suddenly Rockefeller's covered in the lights Families are playing on the ice From Harlem to the Battery (Ooh-ooh) Every corner's bustling Suddenly it's Christmas in New York Croquettes are warming up their kicks (Bum-bum-ba-la-la-la) Radio City sold out all of their tickets The windows on Fifth Avenue Are dressed up and they're telling you (Ooh) Suddenly it's Christmas in New York Find me on Broadway or at the ballet (Ooh) And I'm five years old again (Ooh) Making my wish list, but all I wish is (Ooh-ooh) For another Christmas in New York Oh, Santaland is ready to debut (Ooh) When Macy's is so packed, you can't get through (Ah) The kids are lined up everywhere, spilling out into the square (Ah) Suddenly it's Christmas in New York Taxi Take me straight to Central Park You've got it, lady Welcome to the Empire State building Rockefeller Center Oh my God Isn't the city beautiful?
