Текст Bob Dylan — Simple Twist of Fate

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 then 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
Got a little confused, I remember well
And then they stopped
In a strange hotel

With the neon burning bright
He felt the heat of night
Hit him like a freight train
And moving with a simple twist of fate

Saxophone some place nearby played
She was walking on by the arcade
As a light burst through a beat up shade
But he was waking up

She dropped a coin into a cup
Of a blind man at the gate
And forgot about a 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
He pushed the window
Open wide
He felt an

Emptiness inside
To which he just could not relate
Brought on 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 too 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 too late
To blame it on
A simple twist of fate
