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
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
the colours 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?»
but they’re really saying babe
«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
yes i think to myself
what a wonderful world
the colours 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?»
but they’re really saying babe
«i love you»
