Born to be blue

Some folks were meant to live in clover

but they are such a chosen few

and clovers 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 shoud view

but moonbeams being gold

is 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 courtain fell

Id like to laugh

but nothing strikes me funny

now my world's a faded castel

I guess I'm luckier than some folks

I've known the thrill of loving you

but that alone is more

than I was created for

'cause I was born to be blue.

and that alone is more

'cause I was born to be blue
