Karaoké MacArthur Park Richard Harris

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 'cos 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

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 'cos it took so long to bake it

And 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 and never let you catch me looking at the sun

And after all the loves of my life

After all the loves of my life you'll still be the one

I will take my life into my hands and I will use it

I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it

I will have the things that I desire and my passion flow like rivers through the sky

And after all the loves of my life

Oh after all the loves in my life

I'll be 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

I don't think that I can take it 'cos it took so long to bake it

And I'll never have that recipe again
