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
