. . . Spring was never

waiting for us boy

It ran one step ahead

As we followed
in the dance

Between the parted pages

And were pressed in

As we followed
Like a striped

pair of pants
MacArthur's Park is

melting in the dark
All the sweet green

icing flowing down
Someone left the cake

out in the rain
and I'll never have

that recipe again

oh no
(Instrumental Break)
I recall the yellow
cotton dress

Foaming like a wave

On the ground
Around your knees

The birds like
Tender babies

On the ground
melting in the dark

playing Chinese checkers
by the trees
MacArthur's Park is
to bake it

and I'll never have

that recipe again

oh no
(Instrumental Break)
There will be another

song for me

for I will sing it

There will be another
I will take my life

into my hands

loves of my life

You'll still be the one
Oh after all the

loves of my life

I'll be thinking of you

and wondering why
(Instrumental Break)
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
