Every day I wake up, to a world of grey skies
Where the rain always falls, and the wind always cries
Heart broke and lonesome, I'm empty inside
My true love left me, and never told me good bye
Was I born to be lonesome, was I born to be blue
Was I born to wander, just to be passing thru
I keep searching for something, that I'll never find
I'm heart broke and lonesome, with you on my mind
You appeared like a vision, there were sparks in your eyes
The passion that we felt, could not be denied
But come the next morning, I woke up alone
My heart it was broken, My true love was gone
Was I born to be lonesome, was I born to be blue
Was I born to wander, just to be passing thru
I keep searching for something, that I'll never find
I'm heart broke and lonesome, with you on my mind
I've drank myself blind, trying to fill up this hole
But whiskey it won't fix, what's wrong with my soul
Heart broke and lonesome, I'm empty inside
You've broken my heart, and you've broken my mind
Was I born to be lonesome, was I born to be blue
Was I born to wander, just to be passing thru
I keep searching for something, that I'll never find
I'm heart broke and lonesome, with you on my mind
