Simple Twist Of Fate

They sat together in the park
夕陽下的公園他倆並排坐著
As the evening sky grew dark
餘暉慢慢殆盡剩下淤灰
She looked at him
她的漠然一瞥
He felt a spark tingle to his bones
不經心穿透了他的骨髓
Twas when he felt alone
寒噤不止
And wished that he'd gone straight
他只想掙扎著逃離
And watched out for a simple twist of fate
小心啊那撲朔迷離的命運交錯
They walked down by the old canal
他們漫步在老運河邊上
A little confused I remember well
那畫面已經模糊但我的回憶還算清晰
And then they stopped in a strange hotel
記得那奇怪的旅館
With the neon burning bright
掛著炫目的霓虹燈
He felt the heat of the night
熱浪的輻射陣陣衝擊著他
Hit him like a freight train
就像滿載的列車
And moving with a simple twist of fate
推動著命運的車輪徐徐碾來
Saxaphone some place nearby played
遠處飄來薩克斯風演奏的聲音
She was walking on by at the arcade
伴著她穿過拱廊中慌忙的身影
As a light burst through a bead of shade
縫隙透進的光
But as he was waking
迷住他睜開的睡眼時
She dropprd a coin into a cup of a blind man
她已在門口將硬幣擲進討生盲人的杯裡
That became and both got a bout
彷彿這樣能暫時擺脫
Of a simple twist of fate
這惱人的宿命羈絆
He woke up and the room was bear
他起身時她早已經消失
He didn't see he anywhere
房間空蕩就像開始的那樣
He told himself he didn't care
他裝著若無其事
He pushed the window open wide
信手推開窗戶
He felt an emptyness inside too
可內心卻是莫名的空蕩盪
He could just not relate
不知如何釋懷
But by a simple twist of fate
全因這捉弄人的命運
He hears the ticking of the clocks
秒針分針滴答滴答地響
Small waves whisper to the rocks
細浪在島礁上來回洗刷
He hunts her down by the waterfront docks
在擁滿水手的渡口
Where the sailors all come in
他終於再次找到她
Perhaps he'll see her once again
天知道她和他是否會再次邂逅
How long must he wait once more
但是他要等多久
For a simple twist of fate
才能期待下一次命運的交錯
People tell me it's a crime
人們都說思慮過多是罪過
To feel to much at any one time
無論是在何時
All it cost me was a dime
似乎這不需要花費分毫
But the bells refuse to ring
但禮堂鐘聲並不會因此為我響起
He was born in the spring
他在春天出生
But I was born to late to blame
而我生的太晚
It on a simple twist of fate
都怪那陰差陽錯的宿命
