When I walked into his room
He was sitting on the floor
Last night I prayed that he would
Wake up to something more
When I reached for his hand
He tightly held to mine
I looked him in the eyes and smiled
Told him everything was fine, child

I wonder what he's thinking
When he's starin' off in space
His eyes filled with emotion
An innocent look on his face
As the silence filled the room
I wished for just one day
I could give him a voice
And hear all he has to say
All he has to say
All he has to say

Where's the link we need
That piece to make it whole
I need my little boy back
I need what autism stole

Before I put him to bed
I kneel beside and pray
One day he'll speak again
One day he'll speak again

His eyes filled with emotion
An innocent look on his face
As the silence filled the room
I wished for just one day
I could give him a voice
And hear all he has to say
All he has to say
All he has to say
