Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can think of younger days
When livin' for my life
Was all that a man could wanna do
I could never see tomorrow
No one ever told me about the sorrow
[Verse 2]
How can you mend broken heart? Yeah
How can you stop the rain from fallin' down?
How can you stop the sun from shinin'?
What makes the world go round?
[Verse 3]
I can still feel the breeze
That rushes through the trees
And mystic memories of days gone by
But we could never see tomorrow
No one ever told me about the sorrow
[Verse 4]
I've got to know
[Verse 5]
How can you mend this broken heart? Yeah
How can a loser ever win?
Come on, tell me
(How can you stop) How can you stop (The sun from shining?)
What makes the world go round?
[Verse 6]
Tell me
[Verse 7]
(How can you mend) How can you mend (This broken man?)
When everything is fallin' down around me
How can you stop the rain from fallin' down?
Tell me, help me mend (Please help me mend my broken heart)
And, and let me live, let me live again
[Verse 8]
Sing
[Verse 9]
Please help me mend my, my broken heart
Let me live, I, I believe I can start all over
[Verse 10]
(How can you mend) How can you mend (This broken heart?)
(Broken heart, heart) How can you stop the rain
Stop the rain from fallin' down?
Somebody tell me
(Please help me mend my broken heart)
Help me mend, my, my, this broken, broken heart
All I need is to find somebody to love me
Somebody to squeeze me
Somebody to tease me
(How can you mend this broken man?)
Yeah
This broken man
How can a loser like me ever win?
Somebody tell me
