Boomerang
It's so hard to get you off my mind.
I stumble around, I feel so blind.
All I know is how to love you
All I knew is that you loved me too.
​
But something changed you went away
Now the sun don't shine so bright today
And I hope that you're ok
But i'll let destiny show me the way
​
I had to say good bye, but the boomerang in me wants to give it another try
I didn't want to walk away and the boomerang in my wishes that I could stay
​
I stare at my phone, do I send you another text?
I flick through Facebook and Instagram
But that makes me feel so perplexed
​
I do it just to see your face, one more time
Just to hear your voice, to see you smile
​
I had to say good bye, but the boomerang in me wants to give it another try
I had to walk away but the boomerang in my wishes that I could stay
​
When you think of me, will you give me a smile?
Cause when I think of you, all I want to do is cry
But not because i'm sad, because i'm glad
Glad that I got to share this time
And honored that I got to say, I love you too

Sorry
Not quite sure what to make of you anymore
Seems like yesterday that I knew the score
Today is different I'm no longer sure
How to please you do you really want me anymore?
​
Well I'm sorry, I've given all I can
It's such a shame that you can't accept me
For who I am
​
It was all so wonderful everyday that we had
But then I woke up and everything had turned bad
You didn't seem upset, I couldn't help but be sad
Three weeks later, believe me I'm f#$%ing glad
​
Well I'm sorry, I've given all I can
It's such a shame that you can't accept me
For who I am

Hang Around
There's always times in life
When you're going to need a friend
You know I'll always be here
Until the very end
​
You may sink or swim
You could fall or fly
But reach out to me and I'll help you touch the sky
​
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'll always hang around just to be with you
I'll always hang around
​
You know sometimes it can get
Oh so very hard
You sometimes you want to cry
For no reason at all
​
You may sink or swim
You could fall or fly
Reach out to me and I'll help you touch the sky
​
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
I'll always hang around just to be with you
I'll always hang around
