MacArthur Park

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 them catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
He could 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 to 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.

Oh, okay, you didn't come home last night
I've waited my entire life for this.

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.

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'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.

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
Oh no.

No
No
Oh no.
