Born To Be Blue
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 theres a yellow moon above me
They say theres moonbeams I should view, I should view
But moonbeams being gold
Are 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
Id like to laugh
But nothing strikes me funny
Now my worlds a faded pastel, oh well
I guess I'm luckier than some folks
Woo woo woo
Ive 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
Id like to laugh
But nothing strikes me funny
Now my worlds a faded pastel, oh well
I guess I'm luckier than some folks
Ive 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
