While you have posted Jimmy Webb's lyrics correctly, please note that Sinatra never sang most of them.
He loved Jimmy Webb and recoreded several of his songs but, in 1979, when putting together Trilogy, it was a rather brief verson that Sinatra recorded, with a Don Costa arrangement and Vinnie Falcone conducting. His version began 'There will be another song for me," and sang only the 'guts' of the song, the middle ten lines.
By the way? "Someone left the cake out in the rain." Really?
