#31WriteNow: Ladies Love Lyrics Lyfe Jennings' "Boomerang"


When it comes to music, lyrics matter. Period. I have been a fan of Lyfe Jennings since "Must Be Nice." I attended his first tour after his single was released. It was so good. I've seen him in concert a few times. He always gives a great show. I also met him. Very cool dude. He made me a lifelong fan that night in August 2005. And, now he's back with new music finally. This song "Boomerang" is about the karmic retribution that comes when one breaks a woman's heart. I read the words before listening. This lady loved the lyrics. Listening to the song for the first time reminds me of why I love this man's music so much. There is just a realness that connects him to his music. Watch the video above while getting into the lyrics below. Lyfe Jennings is back and I am one happy fan!! 

"And it’s true, there is no fault
When the rabbit’s got the gun
And you’re in love with the one that hurt you most
And they say karma is a bitch
And I say I agree with that
Cause this whole experience has let me know
That breaking a woman’s heart is like throwing a boomerang
It will come right back to you again
So remember that when it’s happening to you, don’t cry
When it gets hard, cause you threw a boomerang
And it came right back to you again
So remember that when it’s happening to you.
Used to play a lot of games with no conscience
Couple different lovers at once with no problem
Loved the way it felt to have everyone wanting me
Now I’m singing, try to be strong but I’m hurting
And the sad part of it all is I deserve this
This was meant to teach me a lesson, it’s working perfectly.
Cause it’s true, there is no fault
When the rabbit’s got the gun
And you’re in love with the one that hurt you most
And they say karma is a bitch
And I say I agree with that
Cause this whole experience has let me know.
That breaking a woman’s heart is like throwing a boomerang
It will come right back to you again
So remember that when it’s happening to you, don’t cry
When it gets hard, cause you threw a boomerang
And it came right back to you again
So remember that when it’s happening to you.
There I know few realize a woman’s scorn
Then heaven won’t help you hide if you break a heart
Try your best to be honest, try to keep every promise
Cause in the end if it doesn’t work out
She don’t wanna be friends
And she gon want revenge."
