Simple Twist of Fate

They sat together in the park
他和她一起坐在公园里
As the evening sky grew dark
暮色四合 灯火初上
She looked at him
她望向他
And he felt a spark tingle to his bones
他突然感到一阵骨髓深处的刺痛
It was then he felt alone
那一刻巨大的孤独感来袭
And wished that he'd gone straight
他甚至希望自己可以一走了之
And watched out for a simple twist of fate.
这就是命运无常的捉弄吗

They walk along by the old canal
他和她并肩走在老河岸边
A little confused I remember well
曾经些许的迷惘如芒在背
And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burning bright
走进霓虹深邃的神秘旅馆
He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train
夏夜的余温像脱轨的列车般奔向他
Moving with a simple twist of fate.
他有了无能为力的预感

A saxophone someplace far off played
街角隐隐约约的萨克斯声
As she was walking on by the arcade
她在空荡荡的拱廊之下离开
As the light bust through a-beat-up shade where he was waking up
他在肆意宣泄的灯光里惊醒
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
她扔了一枚硬币给门口的盲流浪汉
And forgot about a simple twist of fate.
仿佛扔掉了无常的命运

He woke up the room was bare
他醒了 她不在
He didn't see her anywhere
四下无人的空荡房间
He told himself he didn't care, pushed the window open wide
他推开窗户 告诉自己并不在乎
Felt an emptiness inside to which he can just could not relate
心底却是毫无预兆的空落
Brought on by a simple twist of fate.
她偷走了我的爱

He hears the ticking of the clocks
他数着钟摆的滴答声
And walks along with a parrot that talks
带上鸟笼里的鹦鹉朋友出发
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks
他找到了她
where the sailers all come in
在水手拥挤的码头
Maybe she'll pick him out again how long must he wait
也许她还记得他吗 那又要等多久呢
One more time for a simple twist of fate.
不过又是一轮 命运无常的捉弄吧

People tell me it's a sin
人们告诉我这是一场罪
To know and feel too much within
一场善感的罪
I still believe she was my twin
我终于到了末日火山
but I lost the ring
却发现弄丢了戒指
She was born in spring but I was born too late
她在春光明媚时到来 偏偏在暴雨连绵时离开
Blame it on a simple twist of fate.
不 是离开的时候 暴雨连绵
