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 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'RE REALLY SAYING
I LOVE YOU

I HEAR BABIES CRY
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
OOH, YES
