paroles de chanson Simple Twist of Fate - Ryan Adams

They sat together in the park
As evening sky grew dark
She looked at him and 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

Walked alone by the old canal
A little confused, I remember well
Stopped into a strange hotel
With a neon burnin' bright

He felt the heat of the night
Hit him like a freight train
Movin' like a simple twist of fate

Saxophone played off, far away
She was walkin' by the arcade
As the light bust through a beat-up shade
Where he was wakin' up

She dropped a coin into the cup
Another 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
Pushed the window open wide

And felt the emptiness inside
To which he just could not relate
Brought on by a simple twist of fate

Hears the tickin' on the clocks
Walks along the parrot that talks
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks
Where the sailors all come in

Maybe she'll pick him out again
How long must he wait?
One more time for a simple twist of fate

People tell me that it's a sin
To know too much, to feel too much within
Still I believe it, she was my twin
But I lost the ring

She was born in the spring
But I was born too late
Moved on by a simple twist of fate
