What Becomes of the Brokenhearted - Joan Osborne

As I walk this land of broken dreams I have visions of many things But happiness is just an illusion Filled with sadness and confusion What becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, baby The roots of love grow all around But for me, they come 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 goin' nowhere What becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's now departed? I know I've got to find Some kind of peace of mind, help 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 beginning All that's left is an unhappy ending Now what becomes of the brokenhearted Who has love that's 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 Nothing's gonna stop me now I'll find a way somehow

Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Well, I found him in Pensacola In a trailer in the sand The man from the picture Creased and yellow in my hand Creased and yellow in my hand He was squinting and stubbled And standing in the door He said, "If you've come to take the car away I don't have it anymore I don't have it anymore" Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey He got the gospel on the radio And the gospel on TV He got all of the transcripts Back to 1963 Back to 1963 He said, "I sold my blood for money There wasn't any pain But I just can't stand the feeling It's in someone else's veins" It's in someone else's vei-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Vei-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Mama took me aside And she tried to change my mind She said, "Don't waste your time in looking There's nothin', nothin' left to find Nothin', nothin' left to find" So I left him in Pensacola In a trailer in the sand The man from the picture Creased and yellow in my hand Creased and yellow in my ha-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yay-yay Hey-hey, yay-yay Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey

Whatever happened to this It was an island of bliss In this ridiculous place But now the river runs black And I don't know the way back I feel it going to waste We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Tearing up the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads I reach across the divide I want to take you inside But something's holding me bound There is a thorn in my side That's coming on like a tide These tender feelings do drown We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Tearing up the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads This is a chance for the prize It's waiting here in my eyes You hardly look at me now With every beat of my heart I want to make a new start But I don't seem to know how We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Rolling on the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads
