Scorn Not His Simplicity

Lyrics

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
