I see skies of blue, and clouds of white the bright blessed day the dark sacred night and I think to myself, "What a wonderful world" I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom for me and you and I think to myself, "What a wonderful world" The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people going by I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?" They're really sayin' "I love you" I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow They'll learn much more than I'll ever know And I think to myself, what a wonderful world All the colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people going by I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
