Sunny, thank you for that gleam that flows with grace. You're my spark of nature's fire, You're my sweet complete desire. Sunny one so true, I love you.

Spring was never waiting for us, girl It ran one step ahead as we followed in the dance Between the parted pages and we're pressed In loves 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 And 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 The birds, like tender babies in your hands And the old men, playing checkers by the trees MacArthur Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain And 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 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 After all the loves of my life I'll be thinking of you And wondering why MacArthur Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain And 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
