Born in Queens, New York to Swiss German-American Fred Lauper and Sicilian Italian-American Catrine Dominique. She began her career in a cover band, but soon began performing her own songs - though she almost quit singing altogether due to strained vocal chords in 1977).

Boy Blue Lyrics
Cyndi Lauper
You never knew yourself well enough
But she never knew you at all
And when she put you out on your own
It may have stolen your innocence
But not your soul
Tell me where is little boy blue
Youll find him standing always
One step ahead
Fast a little, shy a little, boy blue
Wise blood runs warms and deep
On the street
... kids walking, just a kid walking
You send a letter with photographs
And Ill tuck them under my dreams
And if we wake up old beyond our years
Not quite as brave as we seem
Its just the pain that never disappears
Tell me where is boy blue
Youll find him standing always one step ahead...
Dance a little, cry a little...
Where are you boy blue
Where are you...
