Spring was never waiting for us

dear

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.



Mac Arthur Parc 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 the recipe again

oh no.



I still see the yellow cotton dress

foaming like a wave

on the ground around your knees

and the birds like tender babies on your hand

and the old men playing

chinese checkers by the trees.



Mac Arthur Parc is melting in the dark

...



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.



But after all the loves of my life

after all the loves of my life

you'll 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 to the sky.



But after all the loves of my life

...



Mac Arthur Parc is melting in the dark
