Macarthur Park - Beggars Opera

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 soft, fevered iron
Like a strip of golden sands
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
Well I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Flowing like a wave
On the ground around your knees
Birds, like tender babies in your hands
Like an 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
Well I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
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
Never let you catch me looking at the sun
And after all the loves of my life
After all the loves of my life
I'm thinking of you, and wondering why
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
Well I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, no
