Return
Joaquin Caste Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Please I'll just ask you to leave
Don't you remember what you have done to me
I would never see you on my seas
Please, go back
Return to your old life
And please, don't come
What has made you come to me
We could make a movie scene
You be yourself and I'll become the king
I would never see you on my seas
Please, go back
Return to your old life
And please, don't come
Unless you really, really want to see my back
Please, go back
Return to your old life
And please don't come
Unless you really, really want to see my back
In the song "Return" by Joaquin Caste, the lyrics express a sense of emotional detachment and a desire for space and distance from someone who has caused hurt or harm. The opening lines, "Can't you see me standing still, Please I'll just ask you to leave," convey a sense of frustration and a plea for the person to go away and not disturb the singer's peace. The singer seems to be reflecting on the actions of this person and the negative impact they have had on their life, as indicated by the line, "Don't you remember what you have done to me, I would never see you on my seas." This could suggest that the relationship has caused distress and the singer wishes to sever ties with this individual.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the theme of separation and the desire for the person to "go back" and "return to [their] old life." This repetition reinforces the idea of creating boundaries and maintaining distance from the individual in question. The plea for the person to not come back "unless you really, really want to see my back" further underscores the singer's firm stance in wanting to move forward without the presence of this person in their life.
The second verse introduces a sense of disbelief or confusion at the person's return, with the lines "What has made you come to me, We could make a movie scene." This suggests that the singer sees the situation as surreal or like a dramatic movie scenario, emphasizing the unexpected nature of this person's reappearance. The singer then contrasts themselves to the other person, suggesting a power dynamic with the phrase, "You be yourself and I'll become the king, I would never see you on my seas," perhaps indicating a shift in the balance of control within the relationship.
The repeated plea for the person to "go back, return to your old life" in the final section of the song signifies a finality in the singer's request for the person to leave and not disrupt their life any further. The insistence on not wanting the person to come back "unless you really, really want to see my back" implies a sense of self-preservation and a need to protect oneself from further pain or harm. Overall, the lyrics of "Return" by Joaquin Caste evoke a sense of emotional distance and a firm resolve to move on from a toxic relationship, drawing clear boundaries and seeking closure.

Can't you see me standing still
I am remaining in the same place, hoping you will notice me
Please I'll just ask you to leave
I kindly request that you go away
Don't you remember what you have done to me
Have you forgotten the harm you caused me?
I would never see you on my seas
I do not want you in my life
Please, go back
I urge you to return to where you came from
Return to your old life
Go back to the way things used to be
And please, don't come
And please, do not come back
Unless you really, really want to see my back
Unless you genuinely wish to see me turn away
What has made you come to me
What compelled you to approach me
We could make a movie scene
Our interaction could be like a scene in a film
You be yourself and I'll become the king
You act as you normally do while I take control
Please, go back
I implore you to go back
And please, don't come
And please, do not return
Unless you really, really want to see my back
Unless you truly desire to see me leave
Please, go back
I urge you to go back
Return to your old life
Revert to your former way of living
And please don't come
And please do not come back
Unless you really, really want to see my back
Unless you genuinely desire to witness my departure
