(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 You 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 tear the world apart My mind has to speak 'Cause I feelin that 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 You 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 trustin And all the things we feel but never see I feel so much Sometimes I'm a little out of touch We can talk honesty, 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 You 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 You don't need to convince me It's a beautiful world, I know It's a beautiful world
