lyrics

I’m walking down to your place
Just in case you’re there
My hands and knees are shaking
I hope you are there
I check my breath just in case
Your mum says you are there
I wear my sexiest shirt
I’m begging please be there

I ring the bell at your house
I’m really shaking now
Time is running too slow
I’m nearly fainting now
I hear the key in the lock
Will it be you my love
I see the stars and I fall
That was just all enough

I’m dreaming of your hairdo
The little curlies you keep trimmed so
Nice and shaped just like a heart and
The color red that I like best

When I come back to life
I open my eyes wide
You stand in front of my face
I cannot yet decide
Are you angry or glad
To see me lying there
That I have come to visit
Hoping you are there

You say hi and you’re helping
So I’m standing up
You stand in front of my face
My heart is jumping up
I hear the door go again
A guy is standing there
You ask if we have met
Is this your boyfriend there?

Just now she realizes
What I was here for and why I
Collapsed so she says kindly
She’d be sorry but it’s too late


I run as fast as I can
I scream out loud what I feel
I kick whatever I see
Until blood runs off my feet

I hate you
I am so disappointed
Hi me I’m back now back again
Hi me I’m not like she is
Hi me I’m back now back again
Hi me you’ve lost forever

Hi me I’m back now back again
Hi me I’m not like she is
Hi me I’m back now back again
Hi me hi me

I was just walking down
Just in case you're there
My hands were shaking
Hoping you are there
I check my breath just in case
Your mum says you are there
I wear my sexiest shirt
But you just didn’t care

Ben Martin Sankt Pölten, Austria

I'm here to write, perform and spread music that has its roots in pop with influences from soul, jazz and folk rock. Ever since I discovered the guitar as a means to express my feelings in 1985, I'm constantly refining and clearing the channel through which I receive, digest and send out music. I recorded "The Endless Stream Of Everything" to share my love and songs with you. ... more
