Scorn Not His Simplicity |
See the child |
With the golden hair |
Yet eyes that snow the emptiness inside |
Do we know |
Can we understand just how he feels |
Or have we really tried |
See him now |
As he stands alone |
And watches children play a children’s game |
Simple child |
He looks almost like the others |
Yet they know he’s not the same |
Scorn not his simplicity |
But rather try to love him all the more |
Scorn not his simplicity |
Oh no |
Oh no |
See him stare |
Not recognizing the kind face |
That only yesterday he loved |
The loving face |
Of a mother who can’t understand what she’s been guilty of |
How she cried tears of happiness |
The day the doctor told her it’s a boy |
Now she cries tears of helplessness |
And thinks of all the things he can’t enjoy |
Scorn not his simplicity |
But rather try to love him all the more |
Scorn not his simplicity |
Oh no |
Oh no |
Only he knows how to face the future hopefully |
Surrounded by despair |
He won’t ask for your pity or your sympathy |
But surely you should care |
Scorn not his simplicity |
But rather try to love him all the more |
Scorn not his simplicity |
Oh no |
Oh no |
Oh no |
