[Verse 1] I can think of younger days when living for my life Was everything a man could want to do I could never see tomorrow I was never told about the sorrow [Chorus] And how can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? Tell me, how can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go 'round? [Verse 2] And how can you mend this broken man? Yeah How can a loser ever win? Somebody please help me mend my broken heart And let me live again, la-la, la-la, la [Verse 3] I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees And misty memories of days gone by But we could never see tomorrow Would you believe that no one, no one ever told us about the sorrow?
