[00:00.00]Born To Be Blue - George Shearing
[00:09.90]Some folks were meant to live in clover
[00:18.72]But they are such a chosen few
[00:25.63]And clover being green is something
[00:30.59]I've never seen
[00:34.20]'Cause I was born to be blue
[00:41.97]When there's a yellow moon above me
[00:49.07]They say there's moonbeams I should view
[00:57.04]Moonbeams being gold are something
[01:01.41]I can't behold
[01:05.44]'Cause I was born to be blue
[01:13.52]When I met you the world was bright and sunny
[01:20.90]When you left the curtain fell
[01:26.87]I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
[01:35.99]Now my world's a faded pastel
[01:43.28]I guess I'm luckier than some folks
[01:51.25]I've known the thrill of lovin' you
[01:59.09]And that alone is more than I was created for
[02:07.22]'Cause I was born to be blue
[03:14.64]When I met you the world was bright and sunny
[03:21.58]When you left the curtain fell
[03:27.21]I'd like to laugh but nothing strikes me funny
[03:37.05]Now my world's a faded pastel oh well
[03:44.89]I guess I'm luckier than some folks
[03:52.52]I've known the thrill of lovin' you lovin' you
[03:59.59]And that alone is more than I was created for
[04:09.60]'Cause I was born to be blue to be blue
