Mc Arthur Park

Mc Arthur Park - Unknown Artists

Spring was never waiting for us dear

It ran one step ahead

As we followed in the dance

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 noooooo

I recall the yellow cotton dress

Foaming like a wave

On the ground be your knees

Birds like tender babies in your hands

And the old men playing

Checkers by the trees

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 noooooo

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 noooooo ooh An
