Born To Be Blue

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 For 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 For 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 And that alone is more than I was created for For I was born to be blue For I was born to be blue
