[00:24.990] Spring was never waiting for us, dear
[00:30.360] It ran one step ahead
[00:33.820] As we followed in the dance
[00:47.680] Between the parted pages we were pressed,
[00:53.230] In love's hot, fevered iron
[00:56.530] Like a striped pair of pants
[01:00.930]
[01:09.330] MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
[01:14.640] All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
[01:20.430] Someone left the cake out in the rain
[01:25.980] I don't think that I can take it
[01:30.930] 'cause it took so long to bake it
[01:34.630] And I'll never have that recipe again
[01:41.430] Oh, no!
[01:51.790]
[02:04.160] I recall the yellow cotton dress
[02:09.370] Foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees
[02:18.620] The birds like tender babies in your hands
[02:23.600] And the old men playing Chinese checkers by the trees
[02:31.420]
[02:34.000] MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
[02:38.890] All the sweet, green icing flowing down...
[02:44.780] Someone left the cake out in the rain
[02:50.240] I don't think that I can take it
[02:55.080] 'cause it took so long to bake it
[02:58.790] And I'll never have that recipe again
[03:05.380] Oh, no!
[03:19.010]
[03:50.410] There will be another song for me
[03:53.920] And I will sing it
[03:57.780] There will be another dream for me
[04:00.850] Someone will bring it
[04:04.640] I will drink the wine while it is warm
[04:07.540] And never let you catch me looking at the sun
[04:12.060] And after all the loves of my life
[04:16.520] After all the loves of my life
[04:19.340] You'll still be the one.
[04:23.090]
[04:23.660] I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
[04:30.530] I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
[04:37.590] I will have the things that I desire
[04:40.740] And my passion flow like rivers through the sky.
[04:45.010] And after all the loves of my life
[04:49.240] After all the loves of my life
[04:52.240] Still be the one
[04:55.410] And I'll ask myself why
[05:03.530]
