Born to Be Blue

Some folks were meant to live in clover
But they are such a chosen few
And clover being green
Is something I have never seen
Cause I was born to be blue
When there is a yellow moon above me
They say there is moonbeams hush with dew
But moonbeams being gold
Is something I cant 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 like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
Now my world is a faded pastel
Well I guess Im luckier than some folks
Ive known the thrill of loving you
And that alone is more
Than I was created for
Cause I was born to be blue
