Simple Twist Of Fate Lyrics
They sat together in the park
As the evening sky grew dark
She looked at him and she felt a spark tingle to her bones
It was then she felt alone and wished that she'd gone straight
And not succumbed to a simple twist of fate
They walked along by the old canal
They were confused, I remember so well
They stopped into a strange hotel with a neons burnin' bright
They felt the heat of the night
And it hit 'em like a freight train
Moving with a simple twist of fate
A saxophone somewhere far off played
As they were walkin' by the arcade
As the light bust through a beat-up shade where he was wakin' up
She got the coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
And see it's just another simple twist of fate
He woke up, and the room was bare
He didn't see her anywhere
He told himself he didn't care, and the windows open wide
Felt this emptiness inside to which he could not relate
Brought on by this simple twist of fate
She hears the ticking of the clock
She walks around with a parrot that talks
He hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailors all come in
Maybe she'll pick him out again, and how long must he wait

Brought on by a simple twist of fate
People think that it's a sin
To know and feel too much within
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring
He was born insane, and I was born too late
Blame it on a simple twist of fate
