I'm down on my knees again tonightI'm hoping this prayer will turn out rightSee there is a boy that needs your helpI 've done all that i can do myselfHis mother is tiredI'm sure you can understandEach night as he sleepsShe goes in to hold h is handAnd she tries not to cryAs the tears fill up her eyesChorus~Can you hear me?Am I getting through tonight?Can you see him?Can you make him feel all right?If you can hear meLet me take his place somehowSee he's not just anyoneHe's my son Sometimes late at night I watch him sleepI dream of the boy he'd like to beI try to be strong and see him throughBut God w ho he needs right now is YouLet him grow oldLive life without this fearWhat would I beLiving without him hereHe's so tired and he's scaredLet him know that You're thereChorusCan you hear me?Am I getting through tonight?Can you see him?Can yo u make him feel all right?If you can hear meLet me take his place somehowSee he's not just anyoneHe's my sonCan you hear me?Can you see him?Please don't leave himHe's my son
