That coat that I gave you
All shiny and black
Well I'm sorry, my darling
But I'm taking it back
I don't want to spoil the party
But I've got to go home
You can stay if you want to
If you want to sleep alone
Some are born to greatness
Some are born to die
Never knowing the difference
Never knowing why
Some are born to change the world
Some never even try
But darling, you and I
We were born to cry
Black has become your favourite colour
For all the things it can conceal
And as we lie here together
I know exactly how you feel
It's time for me to leave this party
But I've just got to ask you first:
If you're only trying to make things better
How come they always turn out worse?
Mm, some are born to greatness
Some are born to die
Never knowing the difference
Never knowing why
Some are born to change the world
Some never even try
But darling, you and I
We were born to cry
Oh, some are born to greatness
And some are born to die
Never knowing the difference
And never knowing why
Some are born to change the world
Some never even try
But darling, you and I
We were born to cry
Yes, darling, you and I
We were born to cry.
Born to cry
