How can you mend a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Somebody please help me mend my broken heart
And let me live again,

Been walking my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows, when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around

The last time she kissed my cheek
Her lips were like the wilted leaves
Upon the autumn covered hills
Resting on the frozen ground
The seeds of love lie cold and still
Beneath a battered marking stone
It lies forgotten

So the little blue man was a Smurf?

[caring__1]

@Daniela1982 The Little Blue Man was released in 1957, and the first Smurf comic came out in 1958. They were close chronologically, but not related. The Smurfs were created by Belgian comic artist Peyo (a. k. a. Pierre Culliford) and called “Les Schtroumpfs” in his native French.
The word “schtroumpf” came from a dinner conversation where Culliford momentarily forgot the word for salt, so he made one up and asked his friend to pass the “schtroumpf.” “Smurf” is the Dutch translation of “schtroumpf.”
