Twist of Fate Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do we deserve a second chance?
How did we fall into this circumstance?
We weren't so straight and narrow
This is much more than we deserve
A higher voice has called the tune
Two hearts that lost the beat will now resume
The gift of life extension
By divine intervention

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Telling me to get it right this time
Life doesn't mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what we've found
The second time around

[Verse 2]
Don't understand what's going on
Woke up this morning, all the hurt was gone
This is a new beginning
I'm back in the land of the living
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
And I gotta get it right this time
Life doesn't mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what we found
The second time around

[Bridge]
Oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Oh, I'm gonna get it right this time
Life doesn't mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what we found
The second time around

It's gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait
Know I gotta get it right
I'm gonna get it right this time
Life (Life) doesn't mean a thing
(Doesn't mean a thing)
Without the love you bring
Love is what we found
(What we found)
The second time around
[Outro]
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate
Telling me that heaven can wait

Life (Life) doesn't mean a thing
Without the love you bring
Love is what we found...

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“Twist Of Fate” was ONJ’s last top 10 hit, reaching #5 in early 1984. It comes from the soundtrack of the film Two Of A Kind – an unsuccessful attempt to recreate the success ONJ had in the 1970s when she was paired up with John Travolta in the classic movie Grease.
