Simple Twist Of Fate-Bob Dylan

They sat together in a park as the evening sky got dark, She looked at him, he felt a spark tingle to her bones, It was then she felt alone and wished she'd gone straight, And watched out for a simple twist of fate,, They walked alone by the old canal, little confused I remember well, Stopped into a renovated hotel with a neon burning bright, She felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train, Moving with a simple twist of fate,, A saxophone someplace played, she was walking on by the arcade, She heard the melody rise and fade the sun was comin' up, She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate, And forgot about a simple twist of fate,, He woke up and she was gone, he didn't see nothin' but the dawn, Got outta bed and put his clothes back on, pushed back the blind, Found a note she's left behind but he could not concentrate on anything, Except the simple twist of fate,, He hears the ticking of the clocks, walks alone through the city blocks, Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in, Maybe he'll see her once again, how long must he wait?, One more time for a simple twist of fate,, People tell me it's a crime to remember her for too long a time, She should have caught me in my prime she would have stayed with me, Instead of goin' back on to see and leavin' me to meditate, Blame it on that simple twist of fate
