Scorn Not His Simplicity Lyrics
See the child
With the golden hair
Yet eyes that show the emptiness inside
Do we knowCan we understand just how he feels
Or have we really tried
See him now
As he stands aloneAnd watches children play a children's game
Simple child
He looks almost like the others
Yet they know he's not the sameScorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh noOh no
See him stare
Not recognizing the kind face
That only yesterday he lovedThe loving face
Of a mother who can't understand
What she's been guilty of
How she cried, tears of happinessThe 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 simplicityBut rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh noOnly 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 careScorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh noOh no
Oh no
