I see trees of green... red roses too
I see em bloom... for me and for you
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue... clouds of white
Bright blessed days... dark sacred nights
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

The colors of a rainbow... so pretty... in the sky
Are also on the faces... of people... going by
I see friends shaking hands... sayin... how do you do
They're really sayin... I love you.

I hear babies cry... I watch them grow
They'll learn much more... than I'll never know
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world

The colors of a rainbow... so pretty... in the sky
Are there on the faces... of people... going by
I see friends shaking hands... sayin... how do you do
They're really sayin... *spoken*(I... love... you).

I hear babies cry... I watch them grow
(Spoken:) (you know their gonna learn a whole lot more than I'll never know)
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself... what a wonderful world.
