Simple Twist of Fate (Live) feat. Jerry Garcia

歌詞

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
