Lyrics Wonderful World / Over The Rainbow - Michael Ball, Alfie Boe

Wonderful World / Over The Rainbow

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, 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, saying how do you do
They’re really saying —
I love you
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There’s a land that I’ve heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me
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
They’re really saying I love you
I see skies of blue, clouds of white
Bright blessed days, dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why-oh-why can’t I?
