Written by Frankie Brown (As performed by Ray Price) 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 thru Born to lose, and now I'm losing you Born to lose, my every hope is gone It's so hard to face an empty dawn You were all the happiness I knew Born to lose, and now I'm losing you There'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
