[00:42.780]They sat together in the park
[00:46.320]As the evening sky grew dark
[00:50.850]She looked at him
[00:52.300]He felt a spark tingle to his bones
[00:57.900]Twas when he felt alone
[01:01.730]And wished that he'd gone straight
[01:06.450]And watched out for a simple twist of fate
[01:11.340]
[01:14.720]They walked down by the old canal
[01:18.760]A little confused I remember well
[01:22.970]And then they stopped in a strange hotel
[01:26.250]With the neon burning bright
[01:29.880]He felt the heat of the night
[01:33.780]Hit him like a freight train
[01:38.840]And moving with a simple twist of fate
[01:43.460]
[01:47.160]Saxaphone some place nearby played
[01:51.120]She was walking on by at the arcade
[01:55.230]As a light burst through a bead of shade
[01:58.520]But as he was waking
[02:02.670]She dropprd a coin into a cup of a blind man
[02:11.170]That became and both got a bout
[02:13.310]Of a simple twist of fate
[02:18.590]
[02:51.750]He woke up and the room was bear
[02:55.050]He didn't see he anywhere
[02:58.680]He told himself he didn't care
[03:02.650]He pushed the window open wide
[03:06.350]He felt an emptyness inside too
[03:10.660]He could just not relate
[03:15.410]But by a simple twist of fate
[03:21.320]
[03:23.950]He hears the ticking of the clocks
[03:27.150]Small waves whisper to the rocks
[03:31.070]He hunts her down by the waterfront docks
[03:34.910]Where the sailors all come in
[03:38.380]Perhaps he'll see her once again
[03:42.500]How long must he wait once more
[03:48.540]For a simple twist of fate
[03:53.530]
[03:55.460]People tell me it's a crime
[03:59.480]To feel to much at any one time
[04:03.360]All it cost me was a dime
[04:07.000]But the bells refuse to ring
[04:10.680]He was born in the spring
[04:14.780]But I was born to late to blame
[04:20.550]It on a simple twist of fate
