Lyrics:



verse 1:

I got no regret right now (I'm feeling this)

The air is so cold and null (I'm feeling this)

Let me go in her room (I'm feeling this)

I love all the things you do (I'm feeling this)

Show me the way to bed (I'm feeling this)

Show me the way you move (I'm feeling this)

***ing you is such a blur (I'm feeling this)

I love all the things you do (I'm feeling this)



Chorus 1:

Fate fell short this time

Your smile fades in the summer 

Place your hand in mine 

I'll leave when I wanna



Verse 2:

Where do we go from here

Turn all the lights down now 

Smiling from ear to ear (I'm feeling this)

My breathing has got too loud (I'm feeling this)

Show me the bedroom floor (I'm feeling this)

Show me the bathroom mirror (I'm feeling this)

Were taking this way too slow (I'm feeling this)

Take me away from here (I'm feeling this)



Chorus 2:

Fate fell short this time

Your smile fades in the summer

Place your hand in mine 

I'll leave when I wanna



Verse 3:

This place was never the same again after you came and went 

How can you say you meant anything different 

To anyone standing alone on the street 

With a cigarette on the first night we met 



Look to the past and remember and smile

And maybe tonight I can breathe for awhile

I'm not in the scene I think I'm falling asleep

But then all that it means is I'll always be dreaming of you



Chorus 3:

Fate fell short this time

Your smile fades in the summer

Place your hand in mine 

I'll leave when I wanna



Fate fell short this time (Are we alone, do you feel it)

Your smile fades in the summer (So lost and disillusioned)

Place your hand in mine (Are we alone do you feel it)

I'll leave when I wanna (So lost and disillusioned)





   Well, that's it, I hope it's right, I tried the best I could

   But, rate it please and give comments, when neccesary 

   For questions or other stuff e-mail me:

   And.. Visit my band's website: www.flowingkarma.tk 

   Have fun with the song, and the tab, its quite easy

   I made this tab, listening to the crappy Action version wich was taped

   from the Madden 2004 game, so it might be a little different from the

   album version (the untitled album)
