I'll try again.

Question - I have been trying to remember a song where Joan Baez sings part of it imitating Bob Dylan. Anyone know that song? It is possible it was not Joan but I am fairly sure it was.
 
Hey, Bruce -

Any help with some of the words?

Mickey
 
Thanks for helping. Sorry but I can't think of any words. I almost can hear the song in my head but can't quite get it. I was hoping someone was a big fan, had a bunch of her albums and knew them all well.

Thanks again

Bruce
 
That's got to be it!!! Thank you SIR!!!

Bruce, does this ring any bells?

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 when 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
A little confused I remember well
And then they stopped in a strange hotel
With the neon burning bright
He felt the heat of the night
Hit him like a freight train
And moving with a simple twist of fate

Saxaphone some place nearby played
She was walking on by at the arcade
As a light burst through a bead of shade
But as he was waking
She dropprd a coin into a cup of a blind man
That became and both got a bout
Of a simple twist of fate

He woke up and the room was bear
He didn't see he anywhere
He told himself he didn't care
He pushed the window open wide
He felt an emptyness inside too
He could just not relate
But 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 to 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 to late to blame
It on a simple twist of fate

I found this, too. You can listen to it.

You guys are great. That is it. I downloaded the album. Perfect.

I knew someone here would get it.

I can sleep tonight after 2 days of trying to remember it.

Thanks Thanks again
Bruce
