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 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 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 loving you, loving you
And that alone is more than 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 my world´s a faded pastel, oh well
I guess I´m luckier than some folks
I´ve known the thrill of loving you, loving you
And that alone is more than I was created for
´Cause I was born to be blue
