Billie Holiday - Autumn in New York текст песни

Vernon duke

Its time to end my holiday and bid the country a hasty farewell.

So on this gray and melancholy day, Ill move to a manhattan hotel.

Ill dispose of my rose-colored chattels and prepare for my share of adventures and battles,

Here on the twenty-seventh floor looking down on the city I hate and adore!

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; theyre making me feel Im home.

Its 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;

Its autumn in new york;

Its good to live again.
