How Can You Mend a Broken Heart Lyrics

[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
But 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?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Oh, please help me mend my broken heart
And let me live again

[Verse 2]
I can still feel the breeze
That rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
I could never see tomorrow
No one said a word about the sorrow

[Chorus]
How can you mend a broken heart?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart
And let me live again
How can you mend this broken man?
God, stop the rain from falling down!
Come on and help me mend my broken heart
And let me live again
How can you mend a broken heart?
You got to tell me how can you stop the rain from falling down
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
