Born to Be Blue Songtext
von Helen Merrill

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
Is 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

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

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


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, to be blue
