[00:30.44] |
They sat together in the park |
[00:34.29] |
As the evening sky grew dark |
[00:37.54] |
She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones |
[00:44.83] |
It was then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight |
[00:51.47] |
And watched out for a simple twist of fate. |
[00:58.76] |
They walked alone by the old canal |
[01:02.31] |
A little confused I remember well |
[01:05.81] |
And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burning bright |
[01:12.05] |
He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train |
[01:18.97] |
Moving with a simple twist of fate. |
[01:27.07] |
A saxophone someplace far off played |
[01:30.37] |
As she was walking on by the arcade |
[01:33.32] |
As the light bust through a-beat-up shade where he was waking up |
[01:39.67] |
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate |
[01:47.40] |
And forgot about a simple twist of fate. |
[02:22.41] |
He woke up the room was bare |
[02:25.90] |
He didn't see her anywhere |
[02:29.19] |
He told himself he didn't care pushed the window open wide |
[02:35.33] |
Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate |
[02:42.97] |
Brought on by a simple twist of fate. |
[02:49.97] |
He hears the ticking of the clocks |
[02:53.41] |
And walks along with a parrot that talks |
[02:56.80] |
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in |
[03:02.76] |
Maybe she'll pick him out again how long must he wait |
[03:10.05] |
One more time for a simple twist of fate. |
[03:17.14] |
People tell me it's a sin |
[03:20.48] |
To know and feel too much within |
[03:23.88] |
I still believe she was my twin but I lost the ring |
[03:30.47] |
She was born in spring but I was born too late |
[03:37.73] |
Blame it on a simple twist of fate. |
