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, nooooo 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 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, nooooo MacArthur´s Park is melting in the dark All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left my cake out in the rain I don´t think that I can take it ´Cause it took so long to make it And I´ll never have that recipe again Oh, nooooo
