“Happy Together”   The Turtles

lyrics ~

Imagine me and you,
I do I think about you day and night, it’s only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together

If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together

I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you
For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you
For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
So happy together
How is the weather
So happy together
We’re happy together
So happy together
Happy together
So happy together
So happy together
(ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba)

“What A Wonderful World”    Louis Armstrong

lyrics

✧

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 going by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying how do you do
They’re really saying:
I love you.

✧
I hear babies crying,
I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more
Than I’ll never know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world.

✧
Yes, I think to myself:
What a wonderful world !
