Lyrics
It's a traveling day
Expresses the beginning of a journey.
I'm on the road tonight
The speaker is currently traveling.
Trying to make it back home to you
Desire to return home to a loved one.
You're probably worried, waiting up like you do
Recognition of the worry the loved one might feel due to the speaker's absence.
It's a beautiful thing
Reflecting on the beauty of thoughts about the loved one.
To think of you like I do tonight
Thinking intensely about the loved one at present.
With all the things that you want to give me
Acknowledging the desire of the loved one to provide things.
All I need is your love to be the star that guides me
Stating that the speaker only requires the love of the significant other to feel guided and complete.
I ain't rich, I know, oh I know
Admitting lack of wealth.
But I feel like I am a millionaire
Despite lacking riches, feeling immensely valuable.
I feel like I am a millionaire
Reiterating the feeling of immense worth despite financial constraints.
Late November on an Indian summer's afternoon
Setting: late November, reflecting on an unusual warmth during fall.
Leaves are brown and the seasons are changing
Noting the changing seasons symbolically.
And all that I can think of is the love we're making
Thinking about the love shared, prioritizing it above all else.
All that I need is to be in your arms tonight
Expressing the desire to be in the arms of the loved one as the sole necessity.
Take a pass on the diamonds and things
Choosing emotional connection over material possessions.
To make it there beside you I'd give everything
Willingness to sacrifice everything to be with the loved one.
It really doesn't matter to me
Asserting that material possessions hold no significance.
If the world was mine, filled with material things
Indifference towards worldly possessions if love is absent.
A fancy car, or a first class ticket to Bali
Referencing material luxuries, emphasizing their insignificance compared to love.
If I have not love than I have nothing
Emphasizing the worthlessness of possessions without love.
I ain't rich, I know, oh I know
Reaffirming lack of wealth.
But I feel like I am a millionaire
Despite financial status, feeling incredibly valuable.
I feel like I am a millionaire
Reiterating the feeling of immense worth despite financial constraints.
Because I got you
Expressing that having the loved one makes the speaker feel rich and complete.
