Lamb To The Slaughter
(mange furuholmen)
I went down to the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Didnt know what was waiting for me there
Nobody warned me
Nobody told me
My excuse is I wasnt prepared
I drank deep from the river
And sealed up my fate
I should have seen the trap, baby
Before it was too late
We go down
We go down
We go down, its the only way out
Who is this fool
Who believed all the stories
I wish I could say
Its not me
You polluted my head
With all the things you said
I became what you wanted to see
All of these years
Ive built up this hate
I had my chance coming
But now its too late
We go down
We go down
We go down, its the only way out

It Wasnt Me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Its not fair to say that
You wanted to work I gave you a chance at that
It wasnt me who hurt you
Thats more credit that Im worth
Dont threaten me with the things youll do to you
It wasnt me who shamed you
It wasnt me who brought you down
You did it to yourself without any help from me
It wasnt me who hurt you
I showed you possibilities
The problems you had were there before you met me
I didnt say this had to be
You cant blame these things on me
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know shes dead, it wasnt me
It wasnt me who changed you
You did it to yourself
Im not an excuse for the hole you dropped in
Im not simple minded
But Im not father to you at all
Death exists but you do things to yourself
I never said give up control
I never said stick a needle in your arm and die
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
I know hes dead but it wasnt me
It wasnt me who shamed you
Who covered you with mud
You did it to yourself without any help from me
You act as I couldve told you
Or stopped you like some god
But people never listen and you know that thats a fact
I never said slit your wrists and die
I never said throw your life away
It wasnt me, it wasnt me, it wasnt me
Youre killing yourself, you cant blame me

Signed, Sealed, Delivered Im Yours
Like a fool I went and stayed too long
Now Im wondering if your loves still strong
Oo baby, here I am, signed, sealed delivered, Im yours
Then that time I went and said goodbye
Now Im back and not ashamed to cry
Oo baby, here I am, signed, sealed delivered, Im yours
Here I am baby
Oh, youve got the future in your hand
(signed, sealed delivered, Im yours)
Here I am baby,
Oh, youve got the future in your hand
(signed, sealed, delivered, Im yours)
Ive done alot of foolish things
That I really didnt mean
Hey, hey, yea, yea, didnt i, oh baby
Seen alot of things in this old world
When I touched them they did nothing, girl
Oo baby, here I am, signed, sealed delivered, Im yours, oh Im yours
Oo-wee babe you set my soul on fire
Thats why I know you are my only desire
Oo baby, here I am, signed, sealed delivered, Im yours
Here I am baby
Oh, youve got the future in your hand
(signed, sealed delivered, Im yours)
Here I am baby,
Oh, youve got the future in your hand

Just To Keep You Satisfied
(m. gaye/a. gaye/e. stover)
You were my life, my hopes and dreams
For you to understand what this means
I shall explain
I stood all the jealousy all the bitching too
Yes I forgot all once in bed with you
Ooh darling how could we end up like this
Ooh baby let me reminisce
And when we ooh we stopped the hands of time
You set my soul on fire my one desire was to love you
And think of you with pride and to keep you satisfied
Ooh baby, ooh baby
We could not bear the mans astray
Leave you I never meant to
Now you see how much you hurt me
But if you ever need me Ill be by your side
Though the many happy times we had
Can never really outweigh the bad
I never loved nobody like I loved you baby
Now its time for us to say farewell
Farewell my darling
Maybe well meet down the line
Its too late for you and me
Its too late for you and i
Much too late for you to cry
Its to late for you and me
Much to late for you and i
Its too late for you and me
Much too late
We tried God knows we tried
Didnt we didnt we didnt we try
God knows we tried
Its too late for you and me
Much too late for you to cry
We stopped the hands of time
Ooh ooh
Its too late for you and i

Borrowed Time
(olivia newton-john)
I saw the light but it was too late, too late
I wanted to fight but it was too great, too great to fight it
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
I started to cry but I was cried out, cried out
Cause you opened my eyes but with the light out
I couldnt see it
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
I begged you to leave her but it was too late, too late
Cause though you have deceived her
You knew that shed wait
Shed wait forever
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine
Im the fool I guess
Im the fool I guess
Guess Im loving on borrowed time
Didnt know that you could not be mine

Sinking In
This is a drag that its too late now.
And I wanted to tell you that I was wrong.
I didnt realize I still hold on to you but I still do.
Was it that I turned everyone against you.
Was it that I didnt defend you.
Was it that I never had your back.
Was it that I was always trying to save you and you never wanted me to.
Or was it that I loved you.
You dont seem to see me sinking in do you.
Youre not content in your own head are you.
You just want to kick me once again dont you.
Dont you baby.
I did it again.
I dont stop paying.
You dont look so good to me my friend.
Is it because of me I really left this time.
Did you ever say goodbye.
Was it that I had a crush on your friend.
Was it that I left for another man.
Was it that I didnt know.
That you were in over your head and I didnt see what I had did i.
No, I didnt and uh.
(chorus)
Was it that everyone would just kiss my ass.
I couldnt see through it and you could.
And now look whats come of us here ten years later.
I jump from one to the other, youre still worrying your mother.
And I almost went under baby.

Was It Something I Didnt Say
Spending another night alone,
Wondering when will I ever see you again.
Thinking what I would give
To get you back baby.
I should have told you how I felt then
Instead I kept it to myself.
I let my love go unexpressed,
till it was too late,
You walked away.
Chorus:
Was it something I didnt say,
When I didnt say I love you.
Was it words that you never heard,
All those words I should have told you.
All those times,
All those nights,
When I had the chance to.
Was it something I didnt say,
Was it something I didnt say.
Always assumed that youd be there,
Couldnt foresee the day youd ever be leaving me.
How could I let my world
Slip through my hands baby.
I took for granted that you knew,
Oh love, the love I had for you.
I guess, you never had a clue,
till it was too late,
You walked away.
Chorus
All the words were in my heart,
Well, they went unspoken.
But baby now my silent heart,
It is a heart thats broken.
I shouldve said so many things,
I shouldve let you know,
Youre the one I needed near me,
But I never let you hear me.

Wasnt It Good
Wasnt it good
The way that I touched you late last night
Wasnt it good again in the mornings early light
Did you know when you closed that bedroom door
I betcha didnt know exactly what I had in store
Wasnt it good when you felt it coming through you
Wasnt it good that I knew just how to do you
Did you know you never had it like this before
I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Youll be thinking about me, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Did you know you never had it like this before
And I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Lets have a party well make the best of it while we can
God you wont be sorry,
Cause Im committed to pleasing my man, my man
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Ill be thinking about you, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Do you love her, can you dig it, did I do it to you baby so good
Did you want it, can you dig it, do you love it baby, baby so good
Was it was it really good, you love it didnt you lover
God Im so ooh shoot, am I good
Did you love it did you want it can you dig it
Baby, baby so good

Late Cat
Late to train
Late to bus
Late to class
And late to party;
She is everywhere a late cat!
Late to eat
Late to sleep
Late to fate
And late to luck;
She is for everything a late cat!
Late to clock
Late to block
Late to dash
Against the truck
And, lo! Even late to death;
She is always a late cat!

My Three Pet Peeves
MY Three Pet Peeves
Three things I hate most in life,
And struggle in my fight and strife.
I hate to see people lie.
They say they can justify,
For them lies have colors.
For me lies are bad manners.
For them lying is as easy as eggs.
For me lies have very short legs.
I also hate people with excuses,
Though this will be of no uses.
For he who excuses himself,
Does nothing but accuse himself.
I also hate coming late to any activity,
For this is a sign of naivety.
'Better be late than never',
Is the weakest excuse ever.
Better come early than late,
As if coming to a blind date.
I hope one day the world will be,
Rid of these pet peeves and ever happy.

The News from the New Grave
I hate coming round again
to this Earth, on re-birth given again
I hate coming home again
as husband for the same woman again
I hate coming pure again
to lose my values once again
I hate coming live again
as nothing lures me of late, again
I hate coming late again
to be loner in the game again
I hate coming back again
missing the tranquil of this solemn GRAVE again

Late Train To Heaven
I was talking to john
He was dressed all in black
He was learning, he said
To never look back
Bells in his ears
He turned and disappeared
But Ive known him for years
Whered he go?
A head full of snow
On the late train to heaven
Augustus my friend
Dressed in velvet and scarf
Hes purging himself
Hes refusing to laugh
Pale as the moon
His words fill the room
Hell be travelling soon
Wheres he bound?
Higher ground
On the late train to heaven
I whispered to you now
But I didnt mean a word
It was just a small madness
Pretend you never heard
Pretend youre here with larry
Pretend youre here with lee
Pretend youre with anyone but me
I didnt come with you, Im gone
And my seats waiting on
The late train
Forever on the late
The late train
Im ready for the late
The late train to heaven
On the late train to heaven

Didnt Mean To Turn You On
Let you take me out
I knew what you were all about
But when I did
I wasnt tryin to lead you on
Now you bring me home
And tell me goodnights
Not enough for you
Im sorry baby
I didnt mean to turn you on
You read me wrong
I wasnt trying to lead you on
I want a friend
I didnt mean to turn you on
I didnt mean to turn you on
I know you
Expected a one night stand
When I refused
I knew you wouldnt understand
Boy I told you twice
I was only tryin to be nice
Only tryin to be nice
Oh
I didnt mean to turn you on
Oh I didnt mean to turn you on
Turn you on
Tell me why should i
Feel guilty cause I wont give
Guilty cause I wont give in
I didnt mean to turn you on
(repeat chorus)
You think that Im a fool
Cause I wouldnt play by your rules
(I didnt mean to turn you on)
You dont stand a chance
All I want to do is dance with you
(I didnt mean to turn you on)
I told you twice
I was only tryin to be nice
(I didnt mean to turn you on)
I loved you for a friend
But I guess this is the
End of our relationship
Cause I didnt mean to turn you on
I didnt mean to turn you on
Sorry.

Just Wasnt Love
Blame it on the blues you sing
Blame it on anything and everything
Blame it on a lack of faith or a twist of fate
til it makes you feel okay
Then come to terms with the fact
It was over because it was
Chorus:
It wasnt the time
It wasnt the place
Or my frame of mind, or the look on your face
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Sad to say
It just wasnt love
Oh, I thought that you were the one
Saw forever
It was here and it was gone
I needed a reason clear things dont disappear
And thats how I found the truth
Its just how the story goes
Weve been over it a hundred times
Chorus
Some things need no explanation
No chance for will thats free (oh no, no)
Some things kill every reason we have
To ever believe things are what they seem
It wasnt the road we were on
Or the days, though there were not enough
Oh, sad to say
Chorus
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Just wasnt love
No, no, no, no
Baby, no, it just wasnt love
It just wasnt love

I Knew You Were Waiting For Me
Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartache
Yes I did, I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness,
Kept my faith (I know you did)
Kept my faith
When the river was deep I didnt falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low iit didnt stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting for me
With and endless desire I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
No, I dont regret a single moment
No I dont looking back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh
When the river was deep I didnt falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low iit didnt stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting for me

Baby you are my soul mate
Baby you are my soul mate
But now it seems it's too late
O those old days were so great
Then secretly we could date
But now we can't change our fate
Coz now it seems it's too late
Sometimes we had tete-a-tete
I stared at you when you ate
You were like my heaven's gate
But now it seems it's too late
Your love has turned into hate
Coz you are now so upset
Your thought now makes my eyes wet
Coz now it seems it's too late
Everything is not said yet
Read my poems in internet
You will forgive I can bet
Though now it seems it's too late
Forget me not don't forget
Otherwise you will regret
Don't treat me like a lost pet
Though now it seems it's too late

Its Too Late Now
Remember how lonely I told you it would be
Without you here with me
But you just turned and walked away
And now that Ive found somebody new
Youve changed your tune
You want me back but all I can say
Chorus:
Its too late now
Just tell me how long did you think
Id be your fool
And I would sit right here an wait
For you to make up
Your mind to show up
Well, just turn around
Im sorry its too late now
Well didnt I tell you that one of these days
It would be too late
To say youd made a big mistake
And now youve come back like youve never been gone
Well baby youre wrong
Somebody else has taken your place

Too Late
Too late we listen,
too late we learn.
Too many years
when the fires did burn.
It all seemed cozy.
It all seemed warm.
We let time slip away
and then did form
a comfortable way to move along,
never asking, 'Is anythng wrong? '
Too late we listen,
too late we learn
to show compassion and show concern.
There were no signs to recognize.
There were no tears formed in the eyes.
We did not ask what we wanted to know.
We contented ourselves with when we go
we won't have to confront these things today.
They'll all be gone when we pass away.
Too late we listen,
too late we learn
and then we yearn
for another chance
to help discern
what was wrong?

Its Not Too Late
Gently rolling father time
Is calling to him now,
And though he hears him
He looks out to sea.
Somewhere out there lie his dreams
A story with no ending
And till he finds his answers
He wont be going nowhere
For him, its not too late
Its not too late
For some its never too late
Quietly knocking on her door.
He patiently stands waiting,
And though she hears him
She sits steadfast in her chair.
Somewhere out there never seen
Her hopes and dreams lie waiting,
And till she finds an answer
She wont be going nowhere
For her, its not too late
Its not too late
For some its never too late
For everything we know thats certain
There is much we cannot see,
So we choose to close the curtain,
Never knowing what could have been
Its not too late, its not too late, never too late
Slowly rocking the babys bed
He strokes its head and whispers
And though it hears him,
It keeps smiling and kicks its feet
Somewhere out there is a life,
A lifetime made for living
So it holds on fast, it aint going nowhere
For some its not too late,
Its not too late
For some its never too late
For some its not too late
Its not too late
For some its never too late
