No sound I hear from day to day
A silent world is where I stay
A world that sometimes causes fear
or brings to eye a sudden tear
I try so hard to talk to you
but those who know my language, few

For I speak with my hands
They write in the air
And I hear with my eyes
They watch with care
Don't fear because you don't understand
Become a friend, clasp my hand

I need your help, I need your hands
To really help me understand
Come give me your hand and I'll show you
how to sing beautiful songs without a sound.
To write your name in the air
To make my world easier to bear

I'm reaching out, take my hand
Learn my language, understand
There's so much I want to share with you
If only you'll take time
if only you care.
