Oh Autumn in New York

On principal I try to not comment on or like my bff's statuses on the FB.

On principal, actually, probably more like out of spite. Mostly because I leave that sort of gesture to his fans and 4,000+ friends on the ol' social networking site.

But he posted quite a find with this link:


And I am so grateful to him for the way Ella and Louis' voices are mellowing me out this morning as I listen to these lyrics:

Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so exciting (inviting)
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-knighting

Shimmering clouds - glimmering crowds (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 a (the) promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain

Dreamers with empty hands
(They) All sigh for exotic lands

(But) 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

(But) It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again
