What a Wonderful World Songtext
von Asleep at the Wheel
What a Wonderful World Songtext
Gonna bring Elizabeth forward to sing this beautiful old tune
(Oh, babe)
I see skies of blue
Clouds of white
Bright blessed day
Dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I see trees of green
Red roses too
I watch them bloom
For me and you
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 passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
What they′re really saying is
"I love you"
I hear babies cry
I'll watch them grow
They′ll learn much more
Than I'll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well, 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?"
What they're really saying is
"I love you"
I see babies cry
I′ll watch them grow
They′ll learn much more
Than I'll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Oh, what a wonderful world
Thank you very much
(Oh, babe)
I see skies of blue
Clouds of white
Bright blessed day
Dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I see trees of green
Red roses too
I watch them bloom
For me and you
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 passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
What they′re really saying is
"I love you"
I hear babies cry
I'll watch them grow
They′ll learn much more
Than I'll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well, 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?"
What they're really saying is
"I love you"
I see babies cry
I′ll watch them grow
They′ll learn much more
Than I'll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Oh, what a wonderful world
Thank you very much
