What a Wonderful World

A friend of mine reminded me of this song today. Have you heard Louis Armstrong sing, What a Wonderful World?

It goes like this:

I see trees of green, red roses too,
I see them bloom, for me and for 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 going by,
I see friends shaking hands, sayin,' "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you."

I hear babies cryin', 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.
Oh yeah.

(When Louis sings it, I believe it.)
