These are the lyrics to the song: “What Goes Around”, by Jim Ashby
WHAT GOES AROUND
Her golden hair floated in the air
As the sun crept up the sky
Her naked skin cause the world to spin
And the sun to wink his eye
I was just a stray, when I came her way
Searching for another place
She was naïve as Adam’s Eve
And blessed by God’s embrace
We fell in love and like the turtle dove
We shared the message of grace
We made love under the stars above
Put a grin on the moon’s face
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
It wasn’t long, ‘fore I played my farewell song
I had to be on my way
But I left with a prayer to see her golden hair
One more time again, someday
The years flew by, high up in the sky
And I found my heart’s home
Then I remembered the girl and her golden hair
And cursed my need to roam
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
Early in the fall, twenty years in all
Since my golden love affair
There came a stranger to my door
With floating golden hair
I could not believe what my eyes perceived
My mind raced back twenty years
There stood my child I had exiled
By being insincere
My child was born one early winter morn’
Her mother died when she was eight
But she called me Dad and said, “I’m glad
That it is not too late.”
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
What goes around comes around and back again
