Born to Be Blue

I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny

They say there's moonbeams I should view, I should view
'Cause I was born to be blue
When you left, the curtain fell
And clover being green is something I've never seen
I guess I'm luckier than some folks

I guess I'm luckier than some folks

When there's a yellow moon above me
When you left the curtain fell

And that alone is more than I was created for
'Cause I was born to be blue
I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you
Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well
I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you
When I met you the world was bright and sunny
When I met you, the world was bright and sunny
But moonbeams being gold, are something I can't behold
And that alone is more than I was created for
Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well
'Cause I was born to be blue
