Frank Sinatra( 法蘭克辛納區 ) Mcarthur Park 歌詞

14.Mcarthur Park

Lyrics：Jimmy Webb
Music：Jimmy Webb
Arranger：Don Costa

Spring was never waiting for us, girl,
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages that were pressed,
A love hot, fevered iron
Like a striped pair of pants

MacArthur 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 I could take it
'cause it took so long to bake it,
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh no!

I still see 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

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.

MacArthur 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 I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh no, oh no!
