[00:15.68] They sat together in the park
[00:19.27] As the evening sky grew dark
[00:22.70] She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones
[00:29.18] It was then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight
[00:36.92] And watched out for a simple twist of fate
[00:44.92] They walked along by the old canal
[00:49.72] A little confused, I remember it well
[00:51.89] Stopped into an old hotel with the neon burnin' bright
[00:58.24] He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train
[01:05.60] Moving with a simple twist of fate
[01:13.50] A clarinet some place softly played
[01:17.05] She was walkin' on by the arcade
[01:20.56] She heard the melody rise and fade, the sun was comin' up
[01:27.07] She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
[01:34.99] And forgot about a simple twist of fate
[01:42.72] He woke up and she was gone
[01:46.03] He didn't see nothing but the dawn
[01:50.85] He got out of bed with his clothes back on, pushed back blind
[01:56.89] Found a note she'd left behind, to which he just could not relate
[02:03.21] All about a simple twist of fate
[02:11.49] He hears the ticking of the clocks
[02:16.22] And walks along through the city blocks
[02:19.72] Hunt her down by the waterfront docks where the sailors all come in
[02:25.84] Maybe she'll see him once again, how long must he wait?
[02:32.29] Once more time for a simple twist of fate
[02:40.40] People tell me that it's a crime
[02:43.74] To feel too much at any one time
[02:47.42] She should have caught me in my prime, she would have stayed with me
[02:56.29] Instead of goin' off to sea and leavin' me to meditate
[03:01.17] Upon a simple twist of fate
