Born to lose I've lived my life in vain every dream has only brought me pain All my life I've always been so blue born to lose and now I'm losing you Born to lose it seems so hard to bear how I long to always have you near You've grown tired and now you say we're through born to lose and now I'm losing you [ steel ] Born to lose my every hope is gone it's so hard to face that empty dawn You were all the happiness I knew born to lose and now I'm losing you It's no use to dream of happiness all I see is only loneliness All my life I've always been so blue born to lose and now I'm losing you Born to lose and now I'm losing you
