Letra: "McArthur park"

Spring was never waiting for us girl,

It ran one step ahead as

we followed in a dance

Between the parted pages

And were pressed in

Love's hot fevered iron

Like a striped pair of pants

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark

All the sweet, green icing flowing down

Someone left the cake out in the rain

And I don't think I can take it

'Cause it took so long to bake it

And I'll never have the recipe again

Oh, no

I still see the yellow cotton dress

Foaming like a wave on the ground

And round your knees

And the birds like tender babies

In your hand and the old men playing

Checkers by the trees.

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark

All the sweet, green icing flowing down

Someone left the cake out in the rain

And I don't think I can take it,

Cause it took so long to bake it.

And I'll never have the recipe again,

Oh, no

There will be another song for me,

Someone will bring it.

There will be another dream for me,

Someone will bring it.

I will drink the wine while it is warm

And never let you catch me

Looking in the sun

But after all the loves of my life

After all the loves of my life

You'll still be the one

I will take my life into my hands

And I will use it

I will win the worship in their eyes

And I will lose it

I will have the things that I desire

And my passions flow like rivers to

The sky

But after all the loves of my life

After all the loves of my life

I'll by thinking of you

And wondering why

MacArthur Park is melting in the dark

All the sweet, green icing flowing down

Someone left the cake out in the rain

And I don't think I can take it

Cause it took so long to bake it

And I'll never have the recipe again
