I see trees of green…… red roses too
I see ’em bloom…. for me and for you
And I think to myself….. what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue…. clouds of white
Bright blessed days…. dark sacred nights
And I think to myself …… what a wonderful world.
The colors of a rainbow….. so pretty.. in the sky
Are also on the faces….. of people.. going by
I see friends shaking hands…..sayin’.. how do you do
They’re really sayin’…… I love you.
