I think to myself what a wonderful world.
see skies of blue and clouds of whiteThe bright blessed day, the dark
sacred nightAnd 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 byI see friends shaking hands saying how do you do.
They're really saying I love you.
hear babies cry, I watch them growThey'll learn much more than I'll
