Lyrics

On the wings of a boomerang Is the heart and soul Of a song he sang Given to him, he gave to me A symbol of a love set free All I am, all I believe All I give, all I receive Truth he told, truth I hold Love a journeying A law across the earth To guide my universe Fly boomerang Soar high in the sky Travel far o’er yonder Dive deep in ocean waters Rapt in desire on a prayer of fire Through the world spinning free In a grander dream Love comes back to me On the wings of a boomerang He left home at age 18 Longed to roam to live his dream See the world, step out in faith Far from his roots to find his place The night before he made his way His sister came to him to say "Take this wooden boomerang Fly free across the sea And one day you’ll return Enriched by all you’ve learned” Fly boomerang Soar high in the sky Travel far o’er yonder Dive deep in ocean waters Rapt in desire on a prayer of fire Through the world spinning free In a grander dream You’ll come back you’ll see On the wings of a boomerang I remember the moment He touched my heart The very first time we had to part Standing at his front door I was moved like never before Way up high above the frame Were wings on which He’d carved my name The wooden boomerang He’d carried ‘round the world He said, “please come back to me I love you can’t you see” Fly boomerang Soar high in the sky Travel far o’er yonder Dive deep in ocean waters Rapt in desire on a prayer of fire Through the world spinning free In a grander dream Come back to me
