Back to You
The Duke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never believed in luck or destiny
And it took me some time to figure out
What I need

All the feelings that I've known
They all lead back to you
And all the places that I've gone
They all lead back to you

I never gave in when they told me
Who I should be
And if they could see through my eyes
My clarity

All the feelings that I've known
They all lead back to you
And all the places that I've gone
They all lead back to you

When I'm na, na…

Can you see it?
It's all that I've got
Can you believe it?
It all leads back to you

It took me some time to figure out

All the feelings that I've known
They all lead back to you
And all the places that I've gone
They all lead back to you

Yeah, I lead back to you





When I'm na, na…

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Duke's song, Back to You, speak about the concept of destiny and how the singer has come to believe that all his experiences and emotions are leading him back to one person - "you." The opening lines "I never believed in luck or destiny" indicates the singer's skepticism towards fate or predetermined events. However, as the song progresses, he realizes that regardless of his beliefs, everything that he has gone through and felt ultimately points towards this one individual, "you."


The lyrics suggest that the singer of the song has been through various situations, places, and emotions, but no matter what happens, they all connect him to "you." The repetition in the chorus "all the feelings that I've known, they all lead back to you, and all the places that I've gone, they all lead back to you" underlines the central theme of the song, which is the idea of being pulled towards someone you cannot resist.


Overall, the song conveys a message of being helpless in the face of one's destiny and how love can be an unstoppable force that has the power to bring two people back together repeatedly.
