See the child 
With the golden hair 
But eyes that show 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 

Chorus:
Scorn not his simplicity 
But rather try to love him all the more 
Scorn not his simplicity 
Oh no 
Oh no 

See him stare 
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

Chorus

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

Chorus
