Born To Be Blue
Johnny Mathis
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 that moon beams I should view But moon beams being gold Are something I can’t behold ’Cause I was born to be blue Bridge: When I met you the world was bright and sunny When you left the curtain fell I want 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
