Born to Be Blue

Born to Be Blue -Ella Fitzgerald

Written by ：Robert  Wells /Mel  Tormé

Some folks were meant to live in clover

But they are such a chosen few

And clover being green is something

I've never seen

'Cause I was born to be blue

When there's a yellow moon above me

They say there's moonbeams I should view

But moonbeams being gold are something

I can't behold

'Cause I was born to be blue

When I met you the world was bright and sunny

When you left the curtain fell

I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny

Now my world's a faded pastel

Well I guess I'm luckier than some folks

I've known the thrill of loving you

And that alone is more than I was created for

'Cause I was born to be blue
