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 stripped pair of pants   Mac Arturh Park is melting in the dark all the sweet green ising flowing down   Someone left the cake out in the rain   But I don't think that I can take it Lord it took so long to bake it   I'll never had that recipe again oh no      I recall the yellow cotton dress foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees   And birds like tender babies in your hands   The old man playing checkers by the trees   Mac Arturh Park is melting...   [ steel ]   There will be another song for me for and I will sing it   There will be another dream for me someone will bring it   I will taste the wine while it is warm and never let you catch me looking in the sun   But 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   And my passions flow like rivers from the sky   But after all the loves of my life after all the loves of my life   I'll still be along wondering why   Mac Arturh Park is melting...
