[Originally by Bob Dylan]
2
They sat together in the park
3
As the evening sky grew dark
4
She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones
5
It was then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight
6
And watched out for a simple twist of fate.
7
They walked alone by the old canal
8
A little confused I remember well
9
And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burning bright
10
He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train
11
Moving with a simple twist of fate.
12
A saxophone someplace far off played
13
As she was walking on by the arcade
14
As the light bust through a-beat-up shade where he was waking up
15
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
16
And forgot about a simple twist of fate.
17
He woke up the room was bare
18
He didn't see her anywhere
19
He told himself he didn't care pushed the window open wide
20
Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate
21
Brought on by a simple twist of fate.
22
He hears the ticking of the clocks
23
And walks along with a parrot that talks
24
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in
25
Maybe she'll pick him out again how long must he wait
26
One more time for a simple twist of fate.
27
People tell me it's a sin
28
To know and feel too much within
29
I still believe she was my twin but I lost the ring
30
She was born in spring but I was born too late
31
Blame it on a simple twist of fate.
