the most beautiful words i think i have ever seen. i have a son with down syndrome and these words are much like my emotions when he was diagnosed. he was born with a heart defect that was repaired twice and i feared losing him. he is four now and doing well. i am so glad i came across this beautiful song. i have listened to it so many times today. i truly love it and feel it so deeply.

this song reminds me of some one i loved and was in a sever accident and he had no memory of us he would have been my husband but his mother would not let me love him and i did so much

I cried when I first heard this. Our son has Austism and I can relate to the sentiments of this song.

@Jake14451 i beg to differ..Luke Kelly's version was great but Sinead captures the essence of this great song like nobody else..its about difference and a mother who cannot accept/deal with a child who is different..Sinead lives thios song..its haunting and i did shed a tear the first time i heard her version !!

Hi, I don't mind you asking. Nothing has changed with our son. Life goes on and so,very, very miserable. I wish I could help him so much but he is proud and defiant. Or maybe insecure.He won't talk but I get a lot of verbal abuse from him. And there is more concerning people on the outside, like the stores and people he used to be friends but I can't write it all on here.If you want to write to BonnieNaaz@gmail feel free . I will always reply.

helpful to have one who cares. Thank you.

I have a son both physically and mentaly challanged but I can't say anymore or I would break down and he is with us. He is almost 52 , a life nearly lost. We were so young and did what we could but he couldn't co-operate with us and mental health. I worry so much what will happen to him when we are gone. And I am allways afraid for him and the future. He is like that little boy Sinead and others sing about. I hope it is different these days...that parents are wiser and can & will get help.

Thank you Jake, you are wright. -Its not Sineads song originally.. But its her version came along my way when I really needed it, and still its her version that truly touches my heart. Every time. But thanx! Good to know who really wrote it.
