What a wonderful world And I think to myself The colors of the rainbow So pretty in the sky I see friends shaking hands, saying how do you do I see trees of green Red roses too I see them bloom For me and you

If you need me, wanna see me Sorry there's no way out (sorry) Call my friends and tell them that I love them And I'll miss them Take me to the rooftop I wanna see the world when I stop breathing, turning blue Tell me love is endless, don't be so

It's alright These whereabouts unknown Please know you can come home I long for the moment Our silence is broken It's alright now To the ends of this lost world You have marched and you have sworn To a tainted crown of thorns

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world The colors of a rainbow so pretty in the sky I see friends shaking hands sayin' how do you do I hear babies cry, I watch them grow And I think to myself, what a wonderful world I see trees of green, red roses

Once I was seven years old Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely Once I was twenty years old, my story got told Once I was twenty years old Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold Or will I have a lot of children who can

So soak it all up, let it sink in Crank it up loud, all the way to ten Raise your cup to the sky Tip 'em back to friends and let your party lights shine On top of the world in the back of a truck Livin' like the sun ain't comin' back up Need a buddy

We'll show you the world and we'll teach you a trade It's not a job, it's an adventure, oh yes sir, I got that Ah, but you never told me I'd get my ass shot at Oh, you'll meet lots of new friends and you're sure to get paid You never told me I'd get my

I want to be, I got to be Man of the world Man, man, man I heard there was a future bride Who will before your eyes Oh, I guess I never knew Yeah, what your woman's getting up to now I really tried to make ends meet Keep your vow, turn off the streets

Wait for me now Take off this crown To break all that defiles Don't you know? The end's robbed me now Wait for me, wait for me Wait for me, wait for me now Do you see the world in different colors? Do you see the world in black and gray?

Oh baby, baby, it's a wild world It's hard to get by just upon a smile But if you want to leave take good care I'll always remember you just like a child girl Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there But just remember there's a lot of bad air and
