I've Passed This Way Before

Life lands a crushing blow And once again a heart is broken And as history repeats itself These few words are sadly spoken I've passed this way before I've felt this pain before A hurt that took so long to end Has found my poor heart again As I watch love walkin' away It brings back old memories A familiar pain still feels the same Once again heartache has found me A dark cloud covered my heart Oh, when she told me goodbye Now there's nothing left but emptiness And the tears that fill my cryin' eyes I've passed this way before I've felt this pain before A hurt that took so long to end Has found my poor heart again No matter how strong a man is Without a love he walks in the dark, baby If love deserts him, it would surely hurt him 'Cause his weakness is his heart A lonely journey now stands before me The endless pain has started But this time I know the way Walkin' alone and broken-hearted because I've passed this way before And I've felt this pain before A hurt that took so long to end Has found my poor heart again I've passed this way before I've felt this pain before
