Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright, blessed day
And the dark, sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 3]
The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands
Sayin', "How do you do?"
They're really sayin'
"I love you"
[Verse 4]
I hear babies cryin'
I watch them grow
They learn much more
Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 5]
The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of all the people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands
Sayin', "How do you do?"
They're really sayin'
"I love you"
[Verse 6]
I've heard my babies cryin'
And I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than I've ever, ever know
And I think to myself
It's a wonderful world
I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Verse 7]
What a wonderful world
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
