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 goin' by 
I see friends shakin' 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 ever know 
And I think to myself 
What a wonderful world 

Yes, I think to myself 
What a wonderful world
