They sat together in the park As the evening sky grew dark She looked at him He felt a spark tingle to his bones Twas when he felt alone And wished that he'd gone straight And watched out for a simple twist of fate
They walked down by the old canal
A little confused I remember well And then they stopped in a strange hotel With the neon burning bright He felt the heat of the night Hit him like a freight train And moving with a simple twist of fate
Saxaphone some place nearby played She was walking on by at the arcade As a light burst through a bead of shade But as he was waking She dropprd a coin into a cup of a blind man That became and both got a bout Of a simple twist of fate
He woke up and the room was bear He didn't see he anywhere
He told himself he didn't care He pushed the window open wide
He felt an emptyness inside too He could just not relate But by a simple twist of fate
He hears the ticking of the clocks
Small waves whisper to the rocks He hunts her down by the waterfront docks Where the sailors all come in
Perhaps he'll see her once again
How long must he wait once more For a simple twist of fate
People tell me it's a crime To feel to much at any one time All it cost me was a dime But the bells refuse to ring He was born in the spring But I was born to late to blame It on a simple twist fateof
