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 Cause I was born to be blue When there's a yellow moon above me They say their moonbeams I should view But moonbeams bring 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 wanna laugh but nothing strikes me funny Now my world's a faded party Well, I guess I'm luckier than some folks I've known the thrill of loving you And that alone is more than I was created for Cause I was born to be blue For I was born to be blue.
