MacArthur Park Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Spring was never waiting for us, dear
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
[Chorus:]
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
[Verse 2:]
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground beneath your knees
The birds like tender babies in your hands

And the old men playing Chinese checkers by the trees
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Repeat Chorus:]
