*With the verse, there may or may not be any bass, because its hard to tell with
the version I have, but to get a fuller sound I would recommend bass also plays
the verse along with everybody else. 

Lyrics 
I got to 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)
How can you be sucha blur (I'm feeling this)
I love all the things you do (I'm feeling this)

Fate fell short this time 
Your smile fades in the summer 
Place your hand in mine 
I'll leave when I wanna

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)

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 
Your smile fades in the summer
Place your hand in mine 
I'll leave when I wanna

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 her smile
And maybe tonight I can breathe for awhile
I'm not in the seat I think I'm falling asleep
But then all that it needs is I'll always be dreaming of you

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 (Fate fell short this time)
Your smile fades in the summer (Your smile fades in the summer)
Place your hand in mine (Place your hand in mine)
I'll leave when I wanna (I'll leave when I wanna)

Fate fell short this time (Fate fell short this time)
Your smile fades in the summer (Your smile fades in the summer) (So lost in this illusion)
Place your hand in mine (Place your hand in mine)
I'll leave when I wanna (I'll leave when I wanna) (So lost in this illusion)

Fate fell short this time (Fate fell short this time) (I'll be alone, you'll be left)
Your smile fades in the summer (Your smile fades in the summer) (So lost in this illusion)
Place your hand in mine (Place your hand in mine) (I'll be alone, you'll be left)
I'll leave when I wanna (I'll leave when I wanna) (So lost in this illusion)

Fate fell short this time (I'll be alone, you'll be left)
Your smile fades in the summer (So lost in this illusion)
Place your hand in mine (I'll be alone, you'll be left)
I'll leave when I wanna (So lost in this illusion)
