Lyrics

As I walk this land of broken dreams I have visions of many things But happiness is just an illusion Filled with sadness and confusion What becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, baby The roots of love grow all around But for me, they come tumblin' down Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger I can't stand this pain much longer I walk in shadows searching for light Cold and alone, no comfort in sight Hoping and praying for someone to care Always moving and goin' nowhere What becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, help me please I'm searching, though I don't succeed For someone's love, there's a growing need All is lost, there's no place for beginning All that's left is an unhappy ending Now what becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind I'll be searching everywhere Just to find someone to care I'll be looking everyday I know I'm gonna find a way Nothing's gonna stop me now I'll find a way somehow
