Carol Kidd. My funny valentine...

Carol Kidd. AUTUMN IN NEW YORK Dominic Ashworth - Guitar (Acoustic) Richard Rodgers - music Lorenz Hart - text *** Autumn in New York Why does it seem so exciting? Autumn in New York It spells the thrill of first-knighting Shimmering crowds and glemmering clouds In canyons of steel They’re making me feel I’m home 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 But autumn in New York Why can’t I live it again? You’re my funny valentine Sweet comic Valentine You make me smile with my heart Your looks are laughable Unphotographable But you’re my favourite work of art. Is your figure? It’s less than Greek Is your mouth just a little weak When you open it to speak Are you smart? Don’t change a hair for me? Not if you care for me... Stay little Valentine stay, Each day is Valentine’s day.
