Οι στίχοι του “Mac Arthur Park”

 

Spring was never waiting for us, dear
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance

 

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

 

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

 

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left my 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.

στίχοι από το “Before We Say Goodbye”

 

“ Before we say goodbye

  And you have gone your way

  Let’s see what can be done

  To make you stay

  

  When all the words are saide

  And all the tears are cried

  Let’s look into our hearts

  And let our hearts decide

 

  Let’s make another try

  Before we say goodbye. ”
