Spring was never waiting for us, girl

 It ran one step ahead

 As we followed in the 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 that I can take it

 'cause it took so long to bake it

 and I'll never have that recipe again

 Oh, no!

I recall the yellow cotton dress

 foaming like a wave

 on the ground around your knees

 The birds, like tender babies in your hands

 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 that I can take it

 'cause it took so long to bake it

 and I'll never have that recipe again

 Oh, no!

There will be another song for me

 For I will sing 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 at the sun

 And 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 passion flow like rivers through the sky.

 And after all the loves of my life

After all the loves of my life

 I'll be 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 that I can take it

'cause it took so long to bake it

 and I'll never have that recipe again

 Oh, no! Oh no
