Hash function working?

How is it really possible that a function can return any random value which is specific for a specific input in a function. There should be a way to get the value back from a hash value. Confused???

There may be a way to reverse the value but the secret of hash functions is that the computational complexity and the time to find the original key are too big to be feasible.
