SINEAD O´CONNOR Scorn Not His Simplicity Lyrics

See the child
With the golden hair
Yet 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

Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love
him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
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
