Boomerang
Ariana Deboo Lyrics

I hear a little patience what a man need
Men need patience, but bottling up their feelings can be harmful.

But bottling feelings'll make a man bleed
Keeping your feelings inside can be detrimental to your mental and emotional health.

The words leave my mouth in a stampede
My words come out quickly and all at once, as if they were horses racing to the finish line.

Watch em galloping, breaking records for land speed
My words come out so quickly that they seem to break land speed records.

My heart pumps and my lips tend to obey
My heart beats faster and I can't help but speak when I'm around the person I love.

You're just so Bay, I hope you don't say "no way"
I'm hoping the person I love won't reject me, as they are everything I want.

Now that I came back around to okay
I'm in a better place now and am ready to pursue the relationship again.

And if you love me, I will love you till we go grey
If the person I love loves me back, I will love them unconditionally for the rest of our lives.

We'll hit El Farolito, and get a bomb burrito
Let's go to El Farolito, a popular restaurant, and get great burritos together.

I try to kill my ego when your subject appears
I try not to let my ego get in the way when I think about the person I love.

But I still think of you when I had a couple of beers
Even when I'm drinking, I can't stop thinking about the person I love.

I'll see you soon I got no use for a bucket of tears
I'm not interested in crying over the person I love, as I want to see them soon.

It seemed unlucky how we'd orbit each other for years
It's unfortunate how we've been circling around each other for years without really connecting.

We got our timing right and then I collided with you
Our timing finally worked out, and we came together like two objects colliding.

The wait is worth it in the moment we finally do
The long wait will be worth it when we finally become a couple.

What I told you maybe half was true
I may have only been partially honest with the person I love.

I know neither of us have a clue
Neither of us knows what we're doing in this relationship.

I'm always coming back to you
I always come back to the person I love.

Your boo, your boo, your boomerang
You're like a boomerang, always returning to me.

I know neither of us have the key
Neither of us knows the secret to making this relationship work.

But I'm telling you, you have to see
I want the person I love to understand that we belong together.

How you're always coming back to me
You always come back to me, like a boomerang.

My boo, my boo, my boomerang
You're like a boomerang to me, always returning to me.

You press my buttons like I were a Nintendo
You know how to get a reaction out of me, just like pressing buttons on a Nintendo controller.

Me and her up in a permanent limbo
We're stuck in an uncertain relationship and don't know what to do next.

It's like it's nothing when we're burnin the indo
Everything else fades away when we're enjoying ourselves and smoking weed together.

The streetlights like a blur in the window
The streetlights create a blur outside the window as we spend time together.

I got no cause to feel I was betrayed
I have no reason to feel betrayed by the person I love.

It's just a symptom of the of the game we played
The feeling of betrayal is just part of the game of love we're playing.

We pull the hearts out of each others' chests, pull the pins out of the hearts
We hurt each other emotionally, as if we were ripping our hearts out or pulling the pins out of them like grenades.

And toss em back and forth like they're grenades
We throw our emotions back and forth between each other, like tossing grenades.

Hot potato, hot potato, what did you do?
We're playing a game of hot potato with our emotions and it's not clear who did what.

Blow my fuckin arm off and then kiss the booboo
You hurt me badly, but then try to make it better in a small way.

Hit me with a shovel, and then say "I dig you"
You hurt me, but then express your love for me in a strange way.

And be colder than an igloo
You can be emotionally distant and cold at times.

When you want me I don't want you, when I want you, you don't want me
Our feelings for each other seem to alternate, causing confusion and misunderstandings.

When I sing a tune and you sing it too then it's "womp womp" in the wrong key
Even when we try to connect on a deeper level, it doesn't always work out and we feel out of sync.

You always let me go and do my thang
You give me space and allow me to do what I want, even if it means we spend less time together.

But I'm always coming back again—boomerang
Even though I have the freedom to do what I want, I always come back to the person I love like a boomerang.
