Born To Be Blue Lyrics - Ella Fitzgerald

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 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

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.
