Born to be Blue

Some folks were meant to live in clover But they're such a chosen few And clovers being green is something I've never seen Cause I was born to be blue hey 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 with you but there's nothing that 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 And that alone is more than I was created for Cause I was born to be blue
