"Watermark" is the third solo studio album by Art Garfunkel, originally released in October 1977 on Columbia Records. The first single, "Crying in My Sleep", failed to chart, but the follow-up, a version of "(What a) Wonderful World" (featuring harmony vocals from Garfunkel's old partner Paul Simon and mutual friend James Taylor) reached #17 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. The songs "Watermark" and "Paper Chase" had previously been performed by Richard Harris on his albums A Tramp Shining and The Yard Went On Forever. This album is also noted as being the final recording sessions of legendary saxophonist Paul Desmond who died of lung cancer shortly thereafter. Actress Laurie Bird, Garfunkel's girlfriend, made the album cover's photograph. Some promotional copies of the single "Crying in My Sleep", released in advance of the album, referred to the album as Art Garfunkel, suggesting the album was initially planned to be self-titled.

[Verse 1]
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

[Chorus 1]
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me, too
What a wonderful world this would be

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
But I do know one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be

[Bridge]
Now, I don't claim to be an A student
But I'm trying to be
For maybe by being an A student, baby
I can win your love for me

[Verse 1]
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

[Chorus 1]
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me, too
What a wonderful world this would be

[Verse 3]
La ta ta ta ta ta ta (History)
Hmm-mm-mm (Biology)
Whoa, la ta ta ta ta ta ta (Science book)
Hmm-mm-mm (French I took)

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, but I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me, too
What a wonderful world this would be
