What Becomes of the Broken Hearted - Jimmy Ruffin

As I walk this land with broken dreams

I have a vision of many things

Love’s happiness is just an illusion

Filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the broken hearted

Who had love that’s now departed

I know I’ve got to find

Some kind of peace of mind, maybe

The fruits of love grow all around

But for me they come a 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 going nowhere

What becomes of the broken hearted

Who had love that’s now departed

I know I’ve got to find

Some kind of peace of mind, maybe

I search though I don’t succeed

But someone look, there’s a growing need

Oh, he’s lost there’s no place for beginning

All that’s left an unhappy ending

Now what becomes of the broken hearted

Who had love that 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

Nothings gonna stop me now

I will find a way somehow

What becomes of the broken hearted

Who had love that’s now departed

I know I’ve got to find

Some kind of peace of mind, maybe
