Born to Be Blue

Some folks were meant to live in clover

But they are such a chosen few, 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,

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, oh well

I guess I'm luckier than some folks

I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you

And that alone is more than

I was created for'

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, oh well

I guess I'm luckier than some folks

I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you

And that alone is more than

I was created for'

Cause I was born to be blue
