Some folks were meant to live in clover
But they are such a chosen few, 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, 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
Woo woo woo
I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' 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 lovin' you, lovin' you
And that alone is more than i was created for
Cause i was born to be blue
Woo woo
