Tried for two hours to pull up the words for this classic Ray Charles song--nothing...need the power of FR---help!
Please anybody---need the words!
You might want to try it using "Louis Armstrong."
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and 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 goin' by
I see friends shakin' 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 ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Armstrong's CD are expensive, so you might buy the sound track from "Sleepless in Seattle" instead (I think it's on there).
LOL! I just found the lyrics for you, but I see someone else posted them for you. You may want to listen to Ray Charles singing "America the Beautiful." It'll make you a bit misty-eyed.
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, saying,
How do you do;
They're really saying,
I love you.
I hear babies cry,
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.
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me, too
What a wonderful world this would be
Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry.
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for
But I do know one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be
Now,I don't claim to be an 'a' student
But I'm tryin' to be
For maybe by being an 'a'-student, baby
I can win your love for me
I've got em both, but couldn't remember.
The only thing wrong with GMVietnam is there is too much talking from the movie soundtrack mixed in with the music.
Here's why...
a favorite of mine---only the last part is mine...
A man/woman(pc/fc version) who works with his/her back...laborer(maybe prostitute--sick humor)!
A man/woman who works with their back--BRAIN(unusual)---craftsman/woman!!
A man/woman who works with his/her back--brain--heart...ARTIST(mother)!!
A man/woman who works with their back--brain--heart--SOUL...poet-PHILOSOPHER---miracles!
Different levels of perception--understanding--"vision-sight"-communication...example--love!
Don't feel bad. The other night I thought Patsy Cline sang "I'm sorry".
I still have a soft spot for Brenda Lee. And "I'm Sorry" is part of the reason for it.
