[Verse 1:]
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
