The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Return to You" by the artist "Visions Of Atlantis"

In the song "Return to You" by Visions Of Atlantis, the lyrical hero is experiencing the loss of a loved one. He feels helpless, unable to hold on to them, and seeks a way to reunite with them after death.

The first verse expresses this helplessness: the hero sees the pain and the desire to stay on the face of the departed ("words... etched upon your face"), but he cannot decipher this "secret tongue" and influence the situation. The only thing he can do is "whisper to the wind," expressing his grief into the void.

The second verse and chorus reveal the depth of the hero's suffering. He is overwhelmed with emotions ("gasp for air, these tears, my cries"), but they are locked inside. He is haunted by "ghosts," perhaps memories or guilt. However, he finds solace in the belief in an inevitable reunion after death ("what must be will be… one day I will come for you"). He believes that they share a common destiny ("the same is waiting for us both"), and death is only a temporary separation.

In the third verse, the hero says that although his beloved was "taken far away," his "ghost," that is, the memory of him, inspires the hero to live on. He continues his journey, awaiting the "faithful call" - the moment when they will be together again.

The repetition of the chorus and the final phrase "I will return to you" emphasize the hero's unwavering belief that death is not the end, and their love will overcome all obstacles.
