The Temptations — What Becomes of the Brokenhearted

[Spoken Intro] You know, love can be strange sometimes As a man goes through life looking for that special someone To stick by his side for a lifetime Now and then, some of us We struggle a little for that love thing that we seek And what we wanna know right now is this [Verse 1] As I walk this land of broken dreams I have visions of many things 'Cause happiness is just an illusion Filled with sadness and confusion [Chorus] What becomes of the brokenhearted? Who had love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe [Verse 2] The roots of love grow all around But for me, they come tumbling down (Come tumbling down) Every day, 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 (No comfort in sight) Hoping and praying for someone to care Always moving but going nowhere [Chorus] What becomes of the brokenhearted? Who had love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, maybe [Verse 3] I'm searching though I don't succeed But someone else has a growing need (A growing need) All is lost, there's no place for beginning All that's left is an unhappy ending [Chorus] Now what becomes of the brokenhearted? Who had love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind [Outro] 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 Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching Got to find her, got to find her, got to find her Oh, I'll be searching
