Your Return
Journey of Love and Seasons: Mathias Gundhus' 'Your Return'
Lyrics
you've got all these stories from across the vast oceans
You have a collection of stories from different parts of the world.
despite your young age you have witnessed so much
Despite being young, you have experienced a lot in life.
and i'm not that well-travelled, never even been to paris
The speaker admits to not being well-traveled and not having been to Paris.
you smile and say the two of us will head there in time
You express optimism about visiting Paris together in the future.
your skin is still a proof of a different kind of winter
Your skin bears evidence of a harsh winter experience.
you recently had another taste of
You recently faced another challenging situation or experience.
and mine is white as milk but our country's gotten warmer
The speaker's skin is fair, but the country has become warmer since your return.
ever since you made your return
The positive change in the country is attributed to your return.
and i think you might be the push i need to go
The speaker sees you as the motivation to explore more of the world.
and see some more of this world
Expressing a desire to travel and experience more of life.
cause first and foremost i need to see
Prioritizing the need to spend time with you above other experiences.
a hella lot of you
An intense desire to be with you and know you better.
it sure is a restless heart that you're carrying
Acknowledging that you carry a restless heart.
but somewhere i sense a soft spot for the thing we call home
Suspecting a sentimental attachment to your home despite restlessness.
which i'll seek to nourish along with the one you have
Committing to nurture the speaker's home along with yours against all odds.
against every odds developed for me
Facing challenges and obstacles for the relationship.
your skin is still a proof of a different kind of winter
Reiteration of the impact of a harsh winter on your skin.
you recently had another taste of
You recently encountered another difficult situation.
and mine is white as milk but our country's gotten warmer
Despite the speaker's fair skin, the country has become warmer since your return.
ever since you made your return
Attributing positive changes in the country to your return.
and i think you might be the push i need to go
Seeing you as the motivation to explore more of the world.
and see some more of this world
Expressing a desire to travel and experience more of life.
cause first and foremost i need to see
Prioritizing the need to spend time with you above other experiences.
a hella lot of you
An intense desire to be with you and know you better.
