Martin lyrics

He was born in the woods, torn from his home

He was naked and destined to be out on his own

And he waited in darkness hoping someone might see

From something so rough what a treasure he’d be

Chorus

Stronger than steel and wood

Seen me through the bad and good

And when I’m hanging by a string

Every little thing is understood between Martin and me

He’s hollow in the middle from the shape that he’s in

He’s either filled up with music or locked in his shell again

And it takes some fine tuning to make him come around

But he’s a huge piece of me and I’ll never put him down

Chorus

He is a good friend and he has his own voice

And you get what you give, sometimes it’s just noise

But if you treat him well, he will last your life long

And if you’re honest and open he will write you a song

(Write you a song, write you a song)

Stronger than steel and wood

Seen me through the bad and good

And when I’m hanging by a string

Every little thing is understood

Hanging on, hanging on, by a string

Every little thing is understood between Martin and me
