Lyrics:
They sat together in the park
As the evening sky grew dark
She looked at him and 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 along by the old canal
A little confused, I remember well
And stopped into a strange hotel
With a neon burnin' bright
He felt the heat of the night
Hit him like a freight train
Moving with a simple twist of fate
A saxophone someplace far-off played
As she was walkin' on by the arcade
As the light burst through a beat-up shade
Where he was waking up
She dropped a coin into the cup
Of a blind man at the gate
And forgot about a simple twist of fate
He woke up, the room was bare
He didn't see her anywhere
He told himself he didn't care
Pushed the window open wide
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
And walks along with a 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 it's a sin
To know and feel too much within
I still believe she was my twin
But I lost the ring
She was born in spring
But I was born too late
Blame it on a simple twist of fate
#BobDylan #Folk #SingerSongwriter
"She was born in Spring but I was born to late " That line really hits hard.
If you mean 'too', no it doesn't.
Yes. Bob seems to articulate my life
experience a affair sometime in the past, I was at the time almost 65, and she was but a little more than thirty...
Yooooooo that does hit hard....
The one that got away...sweet sad,song.
Never understood why people rated Dylan so highly. One day I heard this album and I got it. Truly one of the greatest lyricists of all time.
It's his lyrics and haunting melodies.
@@pearlharbor4790 his voice as well as imperfect as it might be.
@@slystone4892 Awesome
It’s a great album
This is the greatest album ever created anywhere by any artist in the history of music.
Who'd have guessed Dylan was an old romantic. The entire album is a masterpiece, not a single lyric out of place.
If you haven’t already, check out the version live at the Harvard square performance during rolling thunder revue tour. Slightly different lyrics, yet your comment pertains, nevertheless
I think its the opposite. I think he is prisoner of romance. It has dictated his life and owned him.
@@benhinds2971haha that’s romance. What I feel he has protrade.
your second sentence is dylanesque in it's pentameter, very well done. Fyi Shelter from the storm is Dylan at his most romantic, in my humble opinion.
@Shane all opinions are equally valid Shane. Stay safe buddy.
Oh Bob. I’m a grown man of advanced years damn near crying over here, reflecting on a lifetime of simple twists of fate. It’s ok brother. If melancholy can sound this good, I’m all in!
keep makin em melodies sir
I'm completely Crying bro. This hits Me too hard and close.
I saw him play this live, the chills i felt. My all time favorite Bob song and he happened to play it.
I can relate to you and this song in a way I never have although I played it to my friends for a decade now..
Embrace the melancholy but dont let it overpower you in a destructive way
Beware calling any Dylan song the best, you’ll only find a contender a few days later.
I have my favorites down to 5-6, 5-6 dozen.......
Well said
Thank you
benny how many to Ramona and stuck inside a mobile and it’s all over now baby blue(alternate take) are my favourites atm
True as true can be 😉
Now that is true
This song "hits me like a freight train".
Met a girl and we immediately got along very well. We were so similar, and spent our first (and only) date cuddling on the rear bench of my chevy, and later on some stairs outside. When she left, we hugged, I gave her a little kiss on the cheek, which she responded by kissing me on the mouth.
We still chatted a lot, and wanted to meet up again, but she suddenly took more time to respond and became cold.
It took her a while to tell me the truth, she was actually really into me, but she has a pretty sad life. Very strict (and, in my opinion) abusive parents, depression, other problems... and a little age gap that is no big deal where I live, but still too much for us now.
I know I will never meet anyone like her, and she knows she will never meet anyone like me. We just belong together... but it just didn't work out.
Had we met 1 or 2 years later, we would probably be together now.
I can't get her out of my mind, I haven't fully written her off, but it's not looking good for us.
There are so many greats singers and poets but Bob Dylan is undeniably the greatest of them all.
I will say again the only one with a Nobel Prize
He is the only one that got a Nobel prize for his writing
Look no further.
You've just stumbled upon the best song this world has to offer.
Actually better
Nurpus this song made remember when I listened to it. And where that's a song
I feel like this song is about a very lonely, young man's one night stand with a prostitute or maybe a mature woman (Maybe she was even an older prostitute?) during at which time he ends up falling in love with her, only to feel more lonely than he had before once she'd left.
Regardless, this is one of my favorite love songs. What's your perception of the subject matter, internet strangers?
This album is fucking classic! What lovely poetry. My heart aches when I listen to it and I enjoy every bit of it.
What about Tangled Up In Blue? The people over there are clamouring for it being the besht
In my somewhat humble opinion-this album is very close to being the greatest album ever recorded. Full of emotions-good and bad. Happy and sad. It will make you fall in love-which I did.
Definitely Dylan's best.
Highly recommended, Tim Buckley 's album Happy Sad(1969).
@@davidfountain1441 desire is awesome too
same here awesome album
it is i agree
A friend told me that in college back in 1971, his English professor flunked any student whose term paper asserted that Bob Dylan was a poet. About fifty years later, Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize for literature. Social observation often rattles the authorities.
All teachers are total cunts.
@James J not that big a deal a lot of teachers are cunts
A self-ordained professor's tongue too serious to fool

In the summer of 2024, 50 years later, this song is integral to his set list continues to hit home.
Now 65, my deceased husband of 46yrs introduced an sang this album to me, I listen to it an just lose it its like Dylan wrote it for us, Thank you Bob he loved your music so much and I began to love it more.
How sweet Anne. I miss my husband as well. Holidays especially hard
@@cynthiafischer5733you'll always have what you had and it was and is beautiful ❤️ stay strong
The way he's able to paint such a vivid picture with this song really blows me away. Before I listened to this album, I'd heard the big 3 albums from the 60's, which are great, but the esoteric metaphors in the lyrics date them a little bit in my opinion. When I heard this song, I really started to appreciate Dylan as a songwriter in the way everyone else does it seems. Everytime this one comes on, I'm reminded exactly what it feels like to wake up on a beautiful morning, smell the fresh air, and know that you'll never get back what you had the night before, no matter how hard you try. It breaks my heart every time
I know exactly what you mean ❤
Very few artists know how to write as if you are the only one in the room
Beautiful gem interesting song that once mother father put it on my messenger video call screen which is a miracle that our creators made!!! And what a wonder to find your comment here. Feeling this song, please catch and care for our parents while mama papa is incarnate in physical vessel here on earth!! Singing with the super tenacity and super power of our creators! It's 2023 and humanity's parents Mother Father of all creation is incarnate in the physical vessel playing this song to reach out to us to wakeup and call home = joyrains. These are URGENT moments!! Mom Dad have taken on every lower thought for us to wakeup to truth and innocence to be the change in the world! Love to hear from you! Luna
I hear you exactly ❤
i'd never know why this purely masterpiece, isn't treated as one of the best songs of all time...
Cos that’s the sign of a great artist
The entire album is a masterpiece
My favorite Dylan album.
The whole album is the pinnacle of songwriting in general. This is but one of the examples of brilliance on the album.
Except Dylan didn't write these songs.
@@mattharvey4770 sounds like a load of crock
if he didn't write it then how was he able to perform different kinds of versions of this song when he plays it live pretty much every time with new verses and changes?
@@mattharvey4770 Oh look, another conspiracy dork.
The NY Sessions version of the album is fantastic too. The original version of "If You See Her Say Hello" is a masterpiece.
Yes it is, absolutely. This album was life affirming for me.
If this doesn't give you the blues, you have never loved and lost.
Getting older but never getting old, ya dig
So is the irony of life.
Even more moving when you learn this is a break-up album.
One of the best song ever written, along with any song written by Bob, the greatest genius of all time.
Itsy bitsy spider is a great song and i bet more people in the world know that than any bobs songs.weird that eh.🐜🐜🐜
Most certainly the greatest poet of the 20 th century !!!
@@steviebird5452 you just simply forget Leonard Cohen, Pablo Neruda and many other great men and women, don't be blinded by this great song ;)
My best of Dylan for me. Perfect without any other words and notes.
@@VoodooDuck Perdón, con Leonard Cohen podemos estar de acuerdo, pero por favor no mezclar... pablo neruda no es más que GABRIELA MISTRAL... por favor!!!
"People tell me it's a sin
To know and feel too much within"
Forgive me, I'm a sinner.

And THAT is what is wrong with THIS world NOW!
@The Invisible Skater you're spit on there 😟
coachafella...add me to the endless list of sinners. John Keating
"To no one feel too much within" forgive me, also...
It could be that I’m drunk but this song almost makes me cry , it’s fucking beautiful
Pretty crazy when you listen to Dylan sing about relationships, and when you’re young/in your twenties or whatever, it seems like he’s coming from a place of wisdom earned in time. Like he is 70 years old or something. His voice doesn’t help. Then all of a sudden you wake up in your mid thirties, going through similar shit and are relating to the lyrics on a completely different level. It’s no longer a passing fancy it all of a sudden becomes real. Thank you Bob.
I was introduced to this song by a dear dear friend in India. He placed the headphones on my ears and I was bewitched immediately. My friend is no longer here he died in 2019 aged 42. I listen to it now and thank him for touching my life, thank you Ross, I love you forever ❤
Rest In Peace❤
Six months of COVID-19 now. And I hadn't realized how raw I was inside, until this song made me cry.............

Only a genius can write a song like this
One of the greatest songs about love lost that has ever been written.
raja55us I don’t know about prostitute, but it was at least a one night stand that was taken too seriously.
No don't
So painful....my love left me after 11 years
But still living together

American genius, icon, legend.
I walk along the canal with my English bull terrier,a dog I found when looking for a cat at an animal sanctuary.
Thank god for this simple twist of fate.
Love this song.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
That, my friends, is a masterpiece. What a maddening brilliance.
Absolutely!
I bought this album on its release day and this song immediately became my favorite. All these years later, it still is.
Beautiful song reminds me of young love.
Gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it.
Rachel Bonnett-Dell ......just got em! Nothing can beat that
Jgb 93 stof at least listen to Kahn's base solo and understand both men are in deep pain and would both die of broken hearts 2 and 3 years later.. Dylan spoke at Garcia's funeral calling him a father figure
When I hear the slow guitar strumming at the beginning. Gets me every time

There is no way to describe the emotions I have felt making my way through this album at different moments in my life. I have shed tears, deep reflection, awe etc. My favorite album!!!
Bob Ratcliffe: OMG! I agree 100%! You described it beautifully, thank you.
Probably the choice album of most Dylan fans.
Father loved Dylan (Mother the Stones) and although I rebelled as a child how long can a music connoisseur leave Dylan and Stones out of my repertoire.... thankfully only till my teens❤❤❤❤❤❤
I lost the 1st woman I'd ever loved, and when i listened to this album it felt like Bob had written it solely for me.
Its weird, the pain of the loss left me years ago, yet the feelings still enmeshed with this entire album brings me to tears every time.
My gosh....pure magic....the way he starts the story at the ending and then jumps back to the beginning....genius.
Because of Bob Dylan I finally became a writer and a poet. (and Bukowski too). Simple words, but true.
Churchill did the same thing. Only used words even your average layman could understand, that way you dont turn anyone away, or make them feel stupid. They're both so good that most of the time you don't even realize it too.
This song was released 3 months before I was born. The irony is that it feels like it was written for me today. I still find it difficult to sit through it without the tears running down my face. Thanks, Bob.
I don’t like Dylan’s music but this song sends chills up my spine and tears well up in my eyes it’s so beautiful, what an absolute masterpiece.. one of the greatest songs ever
then you like his music ;)
try rolling thunder revue its awesome
If you like one music from Dylan, you'll dig more of his stuff later on.
Lady de lay watch tower, hurricane oh so much more. Hes amzing
You need to listen to his words they will lead you though the twists and trims of life and all the dishonourable peole who may come along... This man got me through some of the most horrific situations I swear I would t be here if it weren't for Bob dylan and cat Stevens and their wise words in dealing with all the less than honourable fools, bullies thieves and liars out there! The man is a genius a prophet a teacher full of wisdom and wonder and wise words! Some many won't understand u til they here them a hundred times over! The man's a Genius!
The man is a giant ...a genius beyond comparison.
A beautiful song. Food for the soul. Thank you, Mr. Dylan. 🏴
This. This song just rips my my guts out. In the best possible way. Sing it Bobby...
amen sister
Totally...
Same here, this song is profoundly beautiful, the guitar chords, the lyrics, and that harmonica !
@@nicjosephs6460 perfect gem of a song from a perfect jewel of an album.
I tingle to my bones every time I heard this song.
Goddamn he’s so so good
Bob Dylan the only man in the world that can reduce me to tears
For a man who can’t sing a note, Dylan sure can sing - if you know what I mean. His songs are almost entirely without melody, they’re more like chants than songs, but they’re the perfect vehicles for the lyrics.
the softer side of the break-up, mournful, romantic and still hoping another twist might throw them back together again.
Thom Yorke brought me here. I knew of Bob through his son, and now I can appreciate this as well.
It's not just the song and lyrics which are amazing, but also the way Dylan performs it. It's only since I started learning to play it did I notice all the lovely variations in his rhythm/strumming and vocal deliveries for each verse. He really is peerless.
Simply the greatest songwriter of all time. The rarest genius. "Infidels" is my personal favorite, "Jokerman" and "I and I" continually blow my mind..but who doesn't love BOTT..Been listening to this classic album since it came out..
Sorry, but none of these post '70 songs match Rolling Stone, She belongs to me, Don't think twice, Just like a woman, Tambourine Man, Visions of Johanna, Love minus zero, Tom Thumb, Baby Blue, One too many mornings, Ballad of a thin man, It takes a lot to laugh, Lay lady lay, Million dollar bash, I shall be released, Times they are a'changing, Leopard skin, Positively 4th, Heaven's door, Back Pages - except maybe"You're gonna miss me when I'm gone" (catch the Shawn Colvin cover).
It always comes back to the holy trinity for me: Bringing it all Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited, Blonde on Blonde.
To think that he released those 3 albums within 18 months boggles the mind.
one of my favorites by him. just hits me so hard still no matter how much time passes. Dylan is such an intriguing and inspiring songwriter
Felt a spark tingle to his bones..... the best feeling . Thank you Sir Bob .
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Twas then that he felt alone.
If u don't like Dylan u don't know music.
If you don't like Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen you're not human!
amen
Bach makes more sense in this case.
I’m 21 years old when I was 15 I listened to like a rolling stone I loved it i later watched a show when I was 16 (californication) and it mentioned this album and ever since then I’ve always admired bob Dylan a little more he’s a true poet
when i was a child i saw the album cover greatest hits in the pile .
in elementary school we sang blowing in the wind in choir.
i was babysat once by a young girl who had an extra copy of blood on the tracks. she gave to me.
went camping that summer with my father and when possitvely fourth street came on the radio in the truck.....my father said this man turned popular music upside down.
i finally played the record and i never looked back...... bob dylan forever
The week that this album was released in the UK, it was played in its entirety on BBC Radio 1. I think it was on Alan Freeman's Sunday afternoon show. I loved it from the first time of hearing it and 50 years later has never been bettered by Mr Zimmerman, imho.
Pure genius god damn
A simple twist of fate, me just noticed that Bob is touring now: Wow!
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
As I get older, this song gets better just like the rest of Bob Dylan’s music
6 years ago I met a girl from another country at a convention that I attended every year. I hopelessly fell in love with her, which I was not prepared for. We hit it off, but after a couple months, things fizzled out when I failed to make a move. Our distance from each other did not help either. For years I fell in and out of love with her time and time again, always getting so close to sharing my feelings, but nothing ever came of it.
We remain to be good friends, but she's happy now with someone else, and I continue to be in a state of limbo, trying to break free and live life to the fullest again, waiting for another simple twist of fate.
I love how songwriters rhyme the words all the while being able to tell a story at the same time, of course Bob's especially good at it.
Have you ever really been in love if this doesn't puncture your heart when you hear it?
Glen MacAfee More so if you've had it fall apart, and who hasn't?
@@Sincopare æg
Who hasn't gone down to the waterfront docks , and on your shoulder, a parrot that talks?

@@guilhermebahia6050 Oh, amigo! Quanta gentileza! Inclusive, vou traduzir o que comentei: "minha favorita canção de Blood on the Tracks. Uma das melhores obras-primas de Dylan!"
People tell me it's a sin
To know and feel too much within.
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late.
Blame it on a simple twist of fate.
These lines are ringing in my head I am not going to blame it on the twist of fate but trying to learn from my experience and grow like so many people before me
"...and forget about a simple twist of fate..." Blame it on. (from Jujuy,Argentina)
No words necessary other than; it's Dylan
He woke up, the room was bare
He didn’t see her anywhere
He told himself he didn’t care, pushed the window open wide
Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate ....(simple but poignant)
Breaks my heart
@@-BUFFALOMan well said...
I don't know how to describe this song. It tells you a story so well narrated... But it convoques you, and your entire loving life; at least, to ones who suffer the worst - and, somehow, the most beautiful - love feeling: being left by the one who you love the most.
This is the song to explain Blood of The Tracks as ''that kind of pain'' , Dylan is at his peak on the vocals , never again and never before he sings this way .
Me too. Probably the album that means the most to me in over a lifetime. Thank you, Bob Dylan.
The musical composition, the lyrics, the vocals, the production ... put all that together and average it out and you get Dylan at his peak. Highway 61 was the work of a genius; "Blood on the Tracks" is the work of a master craftsman.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
A Nobel prize so well
deserved.💖
"LIKE A FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIGHT. TRAIN moving with a simple twist of fate." And people say Bob Dylan can't sing.
Lord when he wails on those parts I'm gutted. Then he finishes me off with the harmonica. So evocative.
Peak Dylan for me.
Jack RW That's because people are fucking idiots !!!
@@jimchorley i was going to say something but you did it for me 🙏
ua-cam.com/video/g6nes4DjH-U/v-deo.html
Dylan doesn't have a great voice, but I don't believe having a great voice makes one a great singer. I love Dylan's voice and especially his vocal phrasing (i.e. "freeeeeeeeight.... train"). Some of my other favorite singers who arguably don't have great voices include: Paul Westerberg, Joe Strummer, Kurt Cobain, Pete Doherty, Jake Bugg, and Bon Scott. I prefer my singers to convey emotion rather than a wide vocal range and perfect pitch. That being said, with Chris Cornell and Roger Daltrey you get both. As a side note, if you haven't seen "Rolling Thunder" on Netflix you owe it to yourself to watch it. Cheers.
I'm with you brother!
“It's hard for me to relate to that. I mean, you know, people enjoying the type of pain..."

I just love this poetry but it is just not the same without Jerry Garcia’s sweetly soaring guitar solos.

My 3 top Dylan faves, this album, Tangled up in Blue, Shelter from the Storm, Simple Twist of Fate, "gets me" every time! It was Bob Dylan's Birthday on May 24, day b-r my beloved brother's... it began when I was probably 5, & my big sis sang Blowin' in the Wind to my baby sis & me... Then, in '78, as a frosh in H School, my Creative Writing teacher told us about Blood on the Tracks, & Chicago's coolest Rock station, WXRT played numerous Dylan, before I got my own albums. It's not just the words or music, it's storytelling @ it's most poignant, beautiful, & so many songs still "get me" every time!
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Nobody sings dylan better than bob❤️
Bob Dylan helped me get over a break up with my girlfriend and failure to enter Teachers College in 1982 . Many men would have lost their minds, Bob helped me get through it
If you're not in love with Bob, you're sorrily lost.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
It’s honestly difficult to chose between Blood on the Tracks and Blonde on Blonde as Dylan’s greatest work. Both are so different in both tone and writing but both will leave you stunned with every listen. One thing is certain though, that one artist can have in my opinion the two greatest albums ever recorded is a testament to his genius.
One of the best albums from the 70s. I think it's Dylan's peak, when it comes to expressing his strong emotions through songs. Songs like this one, or Idiot Wind, just scream with sorrow and bitterness.
I love them all, but "If you see her, say hello" is better :)
I had 20 different versions of this song on a cassette and used to.just play it on long rides with friends who used to point out that it was the same song,no I said "it's 20 different versions of the song" that was the great thing Bob could. do!!
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
This song and You Are a Big Girl Now are simply beyond time.
For me there is something special about this song that I just cannot explain, i just love it. The best song on a brilliant album!!!
This song gives me emotions I can’t describe
Blood on the Tracks.... on of the best albums ever!!!
As a light burst through a beat up shade. What a perfect phrase.
Powerful lyrics. I am grateful to my parents for buying me Dylan albums when I was young, because to this day I still listen to him.
Simply beautiful, these lyrics are some of the most poignant ever written. Truly a masterpiece of a song from one of the greatest albums of all time.
Favorite Dylan song / album - great summary of what it’s like to be a man in his 30’s
I have just recently discovered this song I am completely mesmerized by it brilliant
It's the chord progression D-Dmaj7-D7-G-Gm-D-A-G-D-A7-D The melody sits still for a while to let you feel the movement of the chords...then it busts out, just in the nick of time....
When this album first released I was too young to realize the depth of the lyrics. When I got into my late 20’s I found deep appreciation for this album.
Kinda the same here. I was 14 in Jan of ‘75 when this came out. My best buddy and I spun it though, thanks to him having an older sister who was quite hip and worked at a record store.
Agreed
It's so sweet to see your own growth 😊
I'm so glad and thankful and lucky to listen to Bob Dylan through his Pandemic. I love you man. Form Morocco
This song is perfect to describe how Bob Dylan can syncopate his guitar strums for feeling and even the rhythm of the clicks from his guitar picks convey emotion
perfect lyrics
perfect song
genius.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.
I have always said that the lyrics of the songwriters of my generation will be considered the "poetry of our generation." To reinforce what I have been saying for many years, and have often been scoffed at, in 2016, Bob Dylan was presented with the Nobel Prize for Literature for "the beauty of his lyricism."
"The age of Adaline" brought me here, which I recently watched coincidentally. It's a great song. I was really surprised after having listened to the whole song here on YT. So far I was only interested in Dylan's work, which he did in the 1960s, especially when he became "electric". The reason why I like this song is probably that it sounds more like a leftover fom the sixties than a song from the seventies. Nevertheless the "Blood on the tracks" album from 1975 seems to be a very interesting album .👍
