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, yeah 
And we can talk honesty, but honestly 
I'm OK this way, ya [Chorus:] 
Hey, you just don't understand 
Sometimes my sky's a little gray 
And I know eventually 
I'll be feeling alright again, yeah 
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 tell the world apart 
My mind has to speak '
Cause I feel what 
I feel much too deep 
And if it motivates me to do something good 
And I'm OK, this way, yeah [Chorus:] 
Hey, you 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, yeah just don't understand a thing 
Sometimes my sky's a little gray 
And I know eventually 
I'll be feeling alright again, yeah 
It's about you 
It's about me 
It's about trusting 
All the things we feel but never see 
I feel so much 
Sometimes 
I'm a little out of touch 
You can talk honesty, 
But honestly, 
I'm OK, this way [Chorus:] 
Hey, you just don't understand 
Sometimes my sky's a little gray 
And I know eventually 
I'll be feeling alright again, yeah 
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
