"What A Wonderful World" lyrics - LIONEL HAMPTON

LIONEL HAMPTON
"What A Wonderful World"

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.

I hear babies cry... I watch them grow
They'll learn much more...than I'll never know
And I think to myself...what a wonderful world

[Instrumental break]

The colors of a rainbow...so pretty..in the sky
Are there on the faces...of people..going by
I see friends shaking hands...sayin'.. how do you do
They're really sayin'...*spoken*(I...love...you).

I hear babies cry... I watch them grow
[Spoken:] You know their gonna learn a whole lot more than I'll never know
And I think to myself...what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself...what a wonderful world.
