It's about friends It's about school It's about changes The ones you never thought they'd put you through It's times like these that I got a touch of Irish in me And we can talk honesty, but honestly I'm OK this way, ya Chorus: Hey, ya just don't understand Sometimes my sky's a little gray And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya Life's been a friend to me And don't need to convince me It's a beautiful world, I know It's a beautiful world Verse 2: It's about faith It's about heart It's about progress The things that try to tell the world apart My mind has to speak 'Cause I feel what I feel much too deep It even motivates me to do something good And I'm OK, this way, ya Chorus: Hey, ya just don't understand Sometimes my sky's a little gray And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya Life's been a friend to me And don't need to convince me It's a beautiful world, I know It's a beautiful world Bridge: Sunshine, beating down on my life Maybe that's a long time away But I guess I'll take it day by day You ask when I'll get my smile back When I tell you I can smile now Though I know I'm down And if you stay around it might just happen Hey, ya just don't understand a thing Sometimes my sky's a little gray And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya It's about you It's about me It's about trust And all the things we feel we'll never see I feel so much Sometimes I'm a little out of touch You can talk good as day but honestly, I'm OK, this way Chorus: Hey, ya just don't understand Sometimes my sky's a little gray And I know eventually I'll be feeling alright again, ya ya Life's been a friend to me And don't need to convince me It's a beautiful world, I know It's a beautiful world Hey, It's a beautiful world Sometimes my sky's a little gray Life's been a friend to me And don't need to convince me It's a beautiful world, I know It's a beautiful world
