Some folks were meant to live in clover But they are such a chosen few And clover been green is something I ve never seen Cause I was born to be blue When there's a whole moon above me They say there s moon beams I shoot But moon beams 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 our worlds are faded pastel I've known the thrill of loving you And that alone is more than what 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 our worlds are faded pastel I guess I'm luckier than some folks I've known the thrill of loving you And that alone is more than what I was created for Cause I was born to be blue Cause I was born to be blue
