"On My Way To See You" renders a warm, compassionate melody and shares his joy and gritty determination to finally make it home. The acoustic guitar is a beautiful focal point and shines throughout the song. Mark's masterful instrumentation allows the listener and viewer to journey along with him in a new and familiar way.

The lyrics "These thoughts I'm chasing try to slow me down But I can't turn around" express his love and longing with the relatable vulnerability of his need to just make it there. Elliott is a road-seasoned artist that has paid his dues, and his genuine vocals leave no doubt to how far he has traveled and where he wants to be.

"The road is lonely and never-ending when you're headed home. Your heart longs. Your mind races. Every worry spills into your thoughts as the miles stretch out through the windshield. This song is a vibe of guitars and steel with a constant tire over asphalt groove. The journey home is always the longest when someone you love is waiting...hopefully for you." -Mark Elliott
