There?s a reason why redwood grows
There?s a reason why black sheep stray
There?s a reason why roosters crow
They were born that way
verse 2
You were born to be that perfect man
But you were born to make one mistake
You were born to love me as I am
And you were born for heartbreak
I was born to make you lonely
I was born to make you blue
I was born to be that woman, yeah
Be that woman that
Ain?t no good for you
Don?t have to try to break your heart
I break your heart, then make a scene___
I don?t know why, I don?t know how
I don?t know how to be anything but mean
verse 3
Like the tip of the rose?s thorn
Like the cold of the freezing rain
Some things from the day that they were born
Were meant to cause pain
verse 4
You were born to be that dreaming kind
But you were born to dream awake
You were born to love me blind
And you were born for heartbreak
I was born to make you lonely
I was born to make you blue
I was born to be that woman, yeah
Be that woman that
Ain?t no good for you
Don?t have to try to break your heart
I break your heart and then repeat___
I don?t know why, I don?t know how
I don?t know how to be, I wasn?t born to be sweet
Interlude
Bridge
You were born to be in that love song
Where everybody keeps asking why
Anybody could be so wrong
As to love somebody as, as reckless as
I was born to make you suffer
I was born to make you blue, yeah
I was born to be that woman, yeah
Be that woman that
Ain?t no good for you
Verse 5
There?s a reason why trade winds blow
There?s a reason why branches sway
There?s a reason why fireflies glow
They were born that way
