Westlife - What Becomes of the Broken Hearted Lyrics






[Shane:]
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

[Shane (All):]
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe

[Mark (All):]
Fruits of love
Grow all around (all around)
But for me they come a-tumbling down (a-tumbling down)
Every day heart aches grow a little stronger
(Just a little stonger)
I can't stand this pain much longer
I walk in shadows searching for light (searching for light)
Cold and alone no comfort in sight
(No comfort in sight)
Hopin' and prayin' for someone to care (someone to care)
Always movin' and going nowhere

[All:]
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Help me please

[Shane:]
I'm searching though I don't succeed
(I don't succeed)
Someone's love there's a growing need
(Such a growing need)
All is lost there's no place for beginning
(No beginning)
All that's left is an unhappy ending
Unhappy ending

[Shane (All):]
Now what becomes of the broken hearted
Who have 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'l be looking every day
I know I'm gonna find a way
Nothing's gonna stop me now
I'll find a way somehow

What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Baby
Oh yeah
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
What becomes of the broken hearted

Westlife What Becomes of the Broken Hearted Comments
  1. T.... M....

    Not even close to the talent of Jimmi Ruffin and there is five of them. I think it was a joke and still so how these managers take advantage of these groups they put together, not only does it kill the talent side of music but these guys are being robbed

  59. R.... P....

    STEVE GILES.....ARE YOU JEALOUS...???..GREAT VERSION...!!!!!!..WESTLIFE SO GREAT....!!

  60. D.... A....

    WE REALLY MISS THOSE INCREDIBLE,. AWESOME, TALENTED BOYS, WHO REALLY GIVES THEIR  HEART IN THEIR EVERY PERFORMANCE,

  61. J.... W....

    Where are you boys? I miss you so much!!

  62. g.... ....

    I'm a huge Jimmy Ruffin and Motown fan but I actually like this version---a lot. Never heard of this group before now. Where have they been?

    g.... ....

    They are WESTLIFE the best boyband in the world. They came from IRELAND.

    g.... ....

    OMG Please tell me you're joking :O
    But on the bright side... welcome, new fan, to the cult that is Westlifers.

    g.... ....

    yes they sold everywhere with more than 50 mil records except US/Canada. try amazon, they had import releases

    g.... ....

    they are Guinness record holders too for having their first seven singles went straight to #1 and biggest selling band in 21st century in UK. Take That sold lower and ranked lower than them in the charts. Take That is only big on Europe while Westlife was big in Europe particularly in UK, Ireland and most Asian and African countries. They were supported also in South America, Australia, Mexico as well.

    g.... ....

    They're also one of the first groups that Simon Cowell signed on. They made Simon some of his first millions in the late 90's. They're proof that Simon knows good talent. However, the day that Westlife became #1 on the charts was the same day that Simon's father died.

  63. s.... g....

    POOR rendition.   NO SOUL to it.   Yech !!

    s.... g....

    Sorry, but if you close your eyes and just listen you can hear Shawn Stockman and Boyz 2 Men singing this the same way. Just because they're white doesn't mean they don't present a soulful performance. Soul comes from the heart and all hearts are the same color.

    s.... g....

    +Ron Whiteman Yeah but Westlife are really average in comparison to American vocal groups!! Most UK groups were all garbage anyways.

    s.... g....

    +magic heats I love boybands it's mostly what I listen to and I can tell you that Westlife could sing way better than most American boybands put together, maybe the only American boy band that could sing better was boys 2 men. You should really check out more of their songs they are really good.

    s.... g....

    steve giles no one's care for you here hahahaha.. and westlifer dont need you here .!!

    s.... g....

    I think you've no Soul. Poor you, dude :(

  64. Y.... S....

    I really miss this band! Reunion please!!! ??

  65. A.... M....

    Awesome boy band ever, just miss them.. Thank you for sharing

  66. n.... l....

    This proves the difference between a vocalist and a singer.  They make this sound pretty--and thereby ruin the song.  This is supposed to be styled as being sung by someone in pallor from a broken love that was real and is gone. Their soul is broken and wandering "filled with sadness and confusion".  This version just doesn't cut it.

    n.... l....

    To hear this song in its intended setting, look up Joan Osborne, and the original by Jimmy Ruffin.  Rod Stewart gets an attaboy as well. 

  67. L.... J....

    Westlife Forever...MARK !...mis u westlife

  68. R.... P....

    fFantastic perfomance , westife is the best group that sing , others musics , sometimes , better than the original .....!!!!!!!

    R.... P....

    Westlife are nothing but a cover group pretty average compared to American vocal groups!!

    R.... P....

    Their was no real feeling or emotion in this weak version sorry!!

    R.... P....

    +magic heats Paul Young's version of this song is 5 times sadder.

    R.... P....

    magic hearts, go and get some life buddy... you look like a blind american music fan...

  69. P.... W....

    a memorable song~

  70. G.... F....

    whoa ! MARK !! :) lOVE you westlife <3 i love/like this song ...;)

  71. A.... -....

    missed you guys 

  72. M.... M....

    This was not a bad remake of Jimmy Ruffin classic.

  73. m.... g....

    actual back ups

  74. J.... s....

    Hermosos!!!! Esto me transporta a mis años de juventud!

  75. A.... Z....

    Going around calling people's hard work "shit" just shows how simple minded you are. People cover other people's songs mostly cuz they admire the original and sincerely love it, the goal is not to outshine the original itself. If everybody follow your logic, cover versions are all shit, then why listen to music at all? Young people despise old songs, older people hate songs young people sing. Solution? Everybody go home and write an original right now and stick to it until death!

    A.... Z....

    Anne Zhu non of your song is being covered hear!!..stop talking shit..

  76. A.... Z....

    I don't really give a damn who does this song better. But I certainly discovered this song's existence through Westlife, so I like this version the best. Biased yes, but so what?

  77. s.... ....

    shes better than this shit but no one does better than Jimmy Ruffin - the original -

  78. s.... ....

    methinks not - a generic boy band doing better with a Motown classic ? Get a life

  79. w.... w....

    SUPEREK,,,,,,,,,

  80. J.... K....

    see, they could even sing that version better. Every song they 'covered' was always made to be their own, they ALWAYS put the originals to shame.

  81. l.... ....

    Or listen to Jimmy Ruffin!

  82. a.... m....

    greeeeeaatt

  83. k.... c....

    brian mcffadden always the best,,,,

  84. N.... O....

    Amateurs -listen to Joan Osborne and learn a thing or two!

  85. h.... ....

    After listening to the westlife version, all I can think of is Beegees beegees beegees. I want to hear beegees sing this song.

  86. c.... v....

    i love it

  87. W.... W....

    Lindos, lindos, lindos!!!! que saudade dessa época... Loveeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

    Westlife... The Best of the Best... Forever!!!!!

  88. b.... m....

    i love them boys said there gone now
    love that song too best song ever

  89. c.... ....

    Well, Jimmy probably taught kid brother David how to sing. But you are right, it is not good to lump them. Some people just don't know.

  90. s.... ....

    all of these referances to the temps (and yes, these punks should not be doing a motown classic - all the soul of a wet doilie... ) but no credit to Jimmy Ruffin? I dont think so... no way - no how

  91. A.... C....

    gee i just threw up in my mouth,

  92. S.... P....

    It sounds much better with male voices

  93. T.... C....

    i beg to differ. the temps show more enthusiasm and "soul" lol

  94. c.... d....

    this version is way better.

  95. T.... C....

    this is pretty good but not as good as the temptation's version

  96. s.... ....

    cheesy - bunch of punks redoing a motown classic - I dun thin so...

  97. C.... C....

    Shane's the best
