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'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

I recall the yellow cotton dress

Foaming like a wave

On the ground around your knees

And 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
