Python can print but cannot return statement

Question

New user, please go easy on me. Currently attempting leetcode twosum example and cannot return a statement. Oddly it prints when swapped out to the print keyword. The input example is [3,3] and should return [1,0] or [0,1] when the statement is returned. Looking at other questions on S/O it has to do with the subcall returning to the original loop but i still don't fully understand. Any tips?

class Solution:
    def twoSum(self, nums: List[int], target: int) -> List[int]:
        self.nums = nums
        self.target = target
        nums = tuple(nums) #issue happens as a tuple and list.
        for x in nums:
            for y in nums:
                if (x+y) == target:
                    #print ([x,y])
                    if (nums.index(x)!=nums.index(y) ):
                        return([nums.index(x), nums.index(y)]) #this statement will normally print
                                                               # are any of the lines below necessary?
                    else:
                        continue
                    return

Because the values are the same, nums.index(3) will always equal nums.index(3) since it will always find the first 3. To fix this, use enumerate to track the indices separately:

class Solution:
    def twoSum(self, nums: List[int], target: int) -> List[int]:
        for i, x in enumerate(nums):
            for j, y in enumerate(nums):
                if (x+y) == target:
                    if i != j:
                        return([i, j])
