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 a color 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
i'd like to laugh
but nothing strikes me funny
now my world's a faded pastel

I guess i'm luckier than some folks
to known the thrill of 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
and when you left the courtain fell
i'd like to laugh
but nothing  strikes me funny
now my world's a faded pastel

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
