Never heard this by Al Green but he really nails it …
Other than that, I’m “fine.”
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
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 a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again
I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, no one said a word about the sorrow
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?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again
There are some really good breakup songs. You picked a nice one. I hope your heart isn’t broken.

I’m having a lot of depression, but it isn’t because of a breakup – I was having a little cry and thought I would turn up the juice a little bit … Hey, you started it with playing Bonnie yesterday, haha!

I thought nothing could top the BeeGee’s version, but this at the very least equals it. Thanks for sharing it. And broken hearts don’t have to be about break-ups. 🙂

“How can you mend a broken heart …” The song on my mind again when I woke up! Am I in denial about having a broken heart then? Cuz really I am not mourning a breakup. Or am I? Dun dun dunnnnn…. Course, there are many ways that a heart can break, and I think depression is a form of that. BUT ♪♫ It’s gettin’ better all the ti-i-ime… ♪♫ Betta, betta, ohhhh…
