Martin Kesici Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Call up in the mess within myself
She was on the road to nowhere
And I was on the road to nowhere myself
How was I to know
Our paths would cross
How do I deserve
[Chorus]
Where have you been
Were was I going
Angel Of Berlin, Angel Of Berlin
You've been so close but I didn't see you
Angel Of Berlin, Angel Of Berlin
How many lonely ways I wandered
How many lonely days I must have missed
I wouldn’t wanna miss another
To let me be a better man this time
She makes me sing
She sets me free
And after all
I’ve got someone to be
[Chorus]
Tonight’s the night
I’ve never been so alive
This couldn’t be a better day
She calls me up
And calms me down
And round and round it goes oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
Searching for nothing I finally found you
Angel of Berlin, Angel of Berlin
I Still can’t believe how I could ever breath without you
Angel Of Berlin
The lyrics of Martin Kesici’s “Angel of Berlin” depict the moment of unexpected love when the singer encounters a stranger on a dreary day. The song recounts the singer’s longing for human connection, amidst their own inner turmoil. With a stroke of serendipity, the singer meets a woman on “a stormy Monday” who was also “on the road to nowhere,” and they fall in love. The chorus bells “Angel Of Berlin” as the woman becomes a symbol of hope and light in a world that can be bleak and lonely.
The lyrics expose the theme of finding love in unexpected places and people. The singer’s journey to meet their love is an essential part of the song, and the lyrics indicate that sometimes love will come when least expected. It’s also worth noting that the song’s setting is in Berlin, placing an emphasis on the power of a chance encounter when one is in a foreign land. Martin Kesici brilliantly uses metaphors to illustrate the singer’s internal turmoil and the feelings of numbness that many people can relate to. The Angel of Berlin becomes the light in the singer’s life, awakening them to their need for love.

Met her on a stormy Monday
I first met my love on a dark and dreary Monday, which could have easily symbolized the chaos in my life
Call up in the mess within myself
I was struggling with personal turmoil and inner conflict and she came into my life like a ray of hope
She was on the road to nowhere
My love seemed lost and directionless before she met me, she had nowhere to go and nothing to look forward to
And I was on the road to nowhere myself
Before I met her, I too felt lost and hopeless in life, with no clear purpose to move forward
How was I to know
Our paths would cross
How do I deserve
All the love that she gives yeah
When we first met, I had no idea that our lives would intersect and that she would become such a significant part of my life. I feel incredibly fortunate to have her love and support
Where have you been
Were was I going
Angel Of Berlin, Angel Of Berlin
You've been so close but I didn't see you
Angel Of Berlin, Angel Of Berlin
I wonder where she was all this while when I was struggling, looking for someone to love and wondering what direction to take in life. She had been nearby, but I couldn't see her till the right moment
How many lonely ways I wandered
How many lonely days I must have missed
I wouldn’t wanna miss another
To let me be a better man this time
I went through many difficult, lonely periods before meeting her, and now that she's in my life, I couldn't imagine going through another day without her, as she's made me a better man
She makes me sing
She sets me free
And after all
I’ve got someone to be
She's brought so much happiness and joy to my life, freed me from my inner turmoil and given me a reason to live and be a better man
Tonight’s the night
I’ve never been so alive
This couldn’t be a better day
She calls me up
And calms me down
And round and round it goes oh yeah
Oh yeah
Whenever she calls, I feel calm and happy, as if everything is right with the world. Tonight feels like a perfect night and I'm filled with a sense of vitality, knowing that she's by my side
Searching for nothing I finally found you
Angel of Berlin, Angel of Berlin
I Still can’t believe how I could ever breath without you
Angel Of Berlin
When I wasn't even looking for love, I found her, and now that she's in my life, I can't imagine ever going back to feeling alone and helpless. She's like an angel who saved me from despair

This is what happens when real singing doesn't get backed by big promotions.... I hold his voice and singing very high... 0

Der Tipp er könne in der aktuellen Staffel von TMS im Werwolf sein ist nicht unmöglich. Martin singt wie der Werwolf mit viel Gefühl und Herz. Ob er es tatsächlich ist, schwer zusagen.
