i see trees are green
red roses too
i see them bloom
from me and you
and i think to myself
what a wonderful world

i see skies are blue
and clouds are white
the bright blessed day
the dog says good night
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 shaking hands
saying, how do you do
they really say i love you

i hear babies cry
i watch them grow
they learn much more
and i'll never know
and i think to myself
what a wonderful world
