A Twist of Fate Life is a book Each day is a page Each word a moment in time And as you read The story unfolds It's there to see in your mind In my book of memories Are words I don't understand Someone else has written there A pen and a different hand As I look back And think of the past Would I have chosen this way One never knows What life has in store You live it day by day Why is it when something's wrong It suddenly turns up great Is it a twist of fate I've had my share of broken hearts and tears and pain What makes a man get on his feet and start again Fate Why is it when you're content And everything's in its place In the midst of happiness Love suddenly turns to hate Is it a twist of fate Is it a twist of fate
