Autumn in New York is such a lovely scene
Though, true enough, I have not been
Let me take you back
Let the old remove the new
To Stonegate, Micklegate and Walmgate tooThe settling Romans dug deep into the land
Whilst Vikings camped upon the flooding sand
York’s tallest building is its central pincer devout in faith be that Great MinsterThe white rose which shines for all, embraces every wanderer body and soul
From the red brick houses to narrow cobbled streets
Where history began to imprint its feet
Lies a gem of a place, with charm, sophistication and grace
