[00:28.05]Spring was never waiting for us, dear
[00:33.50]It ran one step ahead
[00:36.87]As we followed in the dance
[00:40.47]
[00:51.55]Between the parted pages
[00:54.81]We are pressed in love's hot, fevered iron
[01:00.28]Like a striped pair of pants
[01:04.38]
[01:13.88]MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
[01:19.43]All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
[01:25.23]Someone left the cake out in the rain
[01:31.11]I don't think that I can take it
[01:35.90]'cause it took so long to bake it
[01:39.70]And I'll never have that recipe again
[01:46.95]Oh, no!
[01:54.72]
[02:02.98]I recall the yellow cotton dress
[02:08.50]Foaming like a wave
[02:12.04]On the ground beneath her knees
[02:17.97]The birds, like tender babies in your hands
[02:23.03]And the old men playing Chinese checkers by the trees
[02:29.82]
[02:32.58]MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
[02:38.41]All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
[02:44.03]Someone left the cake out in the rain
[02:49.55]I don't think that I can take it
[02:54.89]'cause it took so long to bake it
[02:58.43]And I'll never have that recipe again
[03:05.43]Oh, no!
[03:13.18]
[03:36.27]There will be another song for me
[03:39.46]And I will sing it
[03:44.23]There will be another dream for me
[03:46.98]Someone will bring it
[03:50.97]I will drink the wine while it is warm
[03:53.42]And never let you catch me looking at the sun
[03:58.89]And after all the loves of my life
[04:02.62]After all the loves of my life
[04:05.40]You'll still be the one
[04:08.36]
[04:09.56]I will take my life into my hands
[04:13.46]And I will use it
[04:17.27]I will win the worship in your eyes
[04:20.98]And I will lose it
[04:24.56]I will have the things that I desire
[04:27.65]And my passions flow like rivers through the sky
[04:32.45]After all the loves of my life
[04:36.41]After all the loves of my life
[04:39.35]You'll still be the one
[04:42.67]And I ask myself why
[04:45.78]
[04:58.91]MacArthur Park is melting in the dark
[05:04.59]All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
[05:10.40]Someone left the cake out in the rain
[05:16.04]I don't think that I can take it
[05:20.63]'cause it took so long to bake it
[05:24.63]And I'll never have that recipe again
[05:31.63]Oh, no!
[05:39.58]
