“The Comeback” – Leddy Hammock

“The Comeback” – Leddy Hammock

From lyrics to “Like a Boomerang” by Robert Anderson:
 
Every little thing that you say and do, just like a boomerang, it will come back to you.
All the love you give, if you want it to, just like a boomerang, it will come back to you.
 
Every time you fight against something new, just like a boomerang, it will come back to you.  Every single thought that you hold as true, just like a boomerang, it will come back to you.
 
After you were born, you forgot what is true, but like a boomerang, it will come back to you. You may not recall what you came here to do, but like a boomerang, it will come back to you.
 
All that you desire, when you ask it to, just like a boomerang, it will come back to you.
It may seem like fortune sailing out of the blue, but like a boomerang, it has come back to you.
