The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

As I walk this land of broken dreams

I have visions of many things

Happiness is just an illusion filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the brokenhearted

Who had love that's now departed

I know I've got to find some kind of piece of mind

Tell me please

The roots of love grow all around

But for me they come tumbling down (tumbling down)

Everyday heartaches grow a little stronger (stronger)

I can't stand this pain much longer

I walk in shadows searching for light

Going alone no comfort insight

Hoping it brings someone who cares (someone who cares)

Always moving but going nowhere

What becomes of the brokenhearted who had love that's now departed

I know I've got to find some kind of piece of mind

Tell 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 me here

All that's left is an unhappy ending

What becomes of the brokenhearted

Who had love that's now departed

I know I've got to find some kind of piece of mind

I'll be searching everywhere

Just to find someone who cares

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

Ooh ooh

I'll find a way somehow

What you got to know is

What becomes of the brokenhearted

I'm gonna do, I'm gonna do best I can, girl

I've gotta, got to find her

Gotta find the way somehow, sugar

(What becomes of the brokenhearted)

I'm needing ya, baby

(Who had love that's now departed)

I'm needing ya, darling

Oh oh oh oh, yeah yeah, girl

I got to find a woman who's gonna love me

Love me
