Donna Summer Lyrics for Song: Macarthur Park
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Donna Summer
 
 
 
 36716>Spring was never waiting for us, dear
 It ran one step ahead
 As we followed in the dance
 Between the parted pages we were pressed,
 In love's hot, fevered iron
 Like a striped pair of pants
 
 (Chorus)
 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 beneath your knees
 The birds, like tender babies in your hands
 And the old men playing chinese checkers by the trees
 
 (Chorus)
 
 (instrumental interlude)
 
 (Bridge)
 There will be another song for me
 And 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 in 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 from the sky.
 And after all the loves of my life
 After all the loves in my life
 You'll still be the one
 And I'll ask myself why...
 
 (verse instrumental)
 
 (chorus instrumental)
 
 (instrumental interlude)
