On My Way
Vicci Martinez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's going to be a sunny day
But I can't miss another morning
So I'll be on my way
And yes I'll take your cup of coffee
Just add your sugar, add your cream
But first I'm having you for breakfast
And I know, that you know
What I know, yeah you know
But if you wait, I'll have more things to say
But now I'm on my way
And I'll stop right here, and I'll stop right here
And you can take me to the movies
We'll find a spot way in the back
And maybe this time I might let you, hold my hand
And later we'll go back to your place
We'll play some music, and we'll drink some tea
We'll lay all night right here together, yes I love to watch you sleep
And I know, that you know
What I know, that you know
But if you wait, I'll have more things to say
But now I'm on my way
And I'll stop right here, yes I'll stop right here
And I know, that you know
What I know, that you know
But if you wait, I'll have more things to say
But now I'm on my way
The first verse of "On My Way" by Vicci Martinez sets the scene of the start of the day. The singer is waking up early to start their day, and although it's going to be a sunny day, they can't afford to miss another morning. The urgency of the singer is palpable and sets the foundation for the song. The second verse turns the attention to the other person in the song. The singer takes their cup of coffee, but more interestingly proclaims that they will be having the other person for breakfast. This line can be seen as a representation of intimacy and the extent of how the singer feels for this person. The line "And I'll lick my plate clean" also emphasizes the intense attraction that the singer feels towards this person.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the singer’s desire and need to depart for the day. The singer repeats the line "And I know, that you know, What I know" to show that they understand that the other person is aware of their feelings. However, the singer repeatedly states that they have to leave, but will have more to say if the other person waits. The last line of the chorus "But now I'm on my way, and I'll stop right here" emphasizes the urgent need to leave without a pause. The last section of the song has the singer's voice being slightly louder and more passionate, which emphasizes the singer's feelings and the need to leave. The singer expresses a desire to be taken to the movies and eventually going back to the other person's place. The final lines reveal that the singer loves just watching the other person sleep, further showing their affection towards them.

I'm waking up, it's kind of early
