Story Behind The Song
I wanted to write a song with an not-so-straightforward lyrical syntax so challenged my lyricist / co-writer to produce some suitable lyrics and he wrote about his grandson, Benjamin. I then wrote the song and the arrangement and recorded everything at home in my studio.

Lyrics
Benjamin
Didn't know how long that you would make us wait
No idea that you intended to arrive so late
But it's great to have you here
Benjamin
As you start the walk of life we wish you well
How it goes we wait to see for nobody can tell
But it's great to have you here
Welcome to the world my man
Seeing you we understand
Our lives have found new meaning
Now that Benjamin is here
Benjamin
You should know that we'll be always loving you
Hope to guide and give support in everything you do
And it's great to have you here
Welcome to the world my man
Watching you we understand
Our lives have found new meaning
Now that Benjamin is here
It's a very special year
Now that Benjamin is here
