Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was a time, was a time you where mine,
Oh you where mine
We where, we where so alive
Tell me do you, do you realize
Do you realize
These days we where happy
But here you're standing looking into my eyes
And I know what you're trying to say is good bye
I'm hearing what you saying but it makes me smile (E-oh E-oh)
Cause baby theres no need to cry and I tell you why
You're just like a boomerang (E-oh E-oh)
You'll come back to me later (E-oh E-oh)
Now if you have to leave me
I'll be waiting, till you come home (E-oh E-oh)
You'll find a girl, love a girl, leave a girl,
Give it some time
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
But you will find you and I, you and I
It's clear to see
We are, we are just meant to be
So take it all and leave me far behind
Don't you worry bout me cause I'll be fine
I might get a little lonely in the night (E-oh E-oh)
But I remind myself to hold on cause you're just like
You're just like a boomerang (E-oh E-oh)
You'll come back to me later (E-oh E-oh)
Now if you have to leave me
I'll be waiting, till you come home (E-oh E-oh)
You're just like a boomerang (E-oh E-oh)
You'll come back to me later (E-oh E-oh)
Now if you have to leave me
I'll be waiting, till you come home (E-oh E-oh)
I watch you leave direction skyline
(Spin around, spin aroun round – hey –spin around, spin around now)
But I know you'll come back anyway sometime
(Turn around, turn around round – hey – turn around round round)
You're just like a boomerang (E-oh E-oh)
You'll come back to me later (E-oh E-oh)
Now if you have to leave me
I'll be waiting, till you come home (E-oh E-oh)
The song "Boomerang" by Kiddo Kat is about a past relationship that has come to an end but with the assurance that the other person will come back like a boomerang. The opening verse talks about the good times they shared together, and the chorus compares the person leaving to a boomerang, meaning they will return one way or another. The singer then urges the person to leave and take everything they want, but not to worry about her as she will be okay on her own.
The second verse talks about the inevitability of the person leaving her but reassures the person that they are meant to be together, and they will eventually come back to her. The bridge describes the person leaving her and her watching them go, but she ultimately knows they will return to her, just like a boomerang.
The song has a relatable message for anyone who has gone through a break-up and is hoping for the other person to eventually come back. The lyrics convey a sense of hope and confidence in the relationship, despite the challenges that led to the separation.
