Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right maybe I just don't know
Will I ever fall in love and never have to worry that I'm falling all alone
Maybe it's true I was just born to be blue
Maybe it's true I was just born to be blue

They say everybody's got a someone a sweet somebody to love
It might be fate or destiny may be written in the stars above
But I can't help but wonder after all that I've been through
Maybe my baby's nowhere to be found and I was just born to be blue

Was I born to be unhappy just to live on heartache street
Was I born to go to bed each night and cry myself to sleep
Can somebody out there help me give me some kind of clue
Tell me I'm wrong tell me I'm right but don't tell me I was born to be blue

[ piano ]
They say nobody dies from a heartache you can't drown in your own tears
But who wants to live in this world alone where minutes turn into years
So I'd rather go down believing suffer a heartache or two
Tell me I'm wrong tell me I'm right but don't tell me I was born to be blue

[ piano ]
Was I born to be blue born just to cry
Born to be alone till the day I die
Somebody tell me
Was I born to be loved born to be kissed
Born to find the one to show me what I missed

Was I born to be blue born just to cry
Born to be alone till the day I die
Tell me mama
Was I born to be loved born to be kissed
Born to find the one to show me what I missed
