(Who wouldn’t change?) Many times I've faced the cold shoulder and ridicule Never have I gave up my heart’s hopes and ideals A moment of absentmindedness, There’s also the feeling of loss Without realization, it faded, The love in my heart (Who understands me?) **Forgive me this life of uninhibited love and indulgence of freedom Although I'm still afraid that one day I might fall, oh no Abandon your hopes and ideals, anyone also can do I’m not afraid if someday there’s only you and me Repeat *,** Still I am free, still I am independent.Ronnie Lee Milsap was born on Januin Robbinsville, North Carolina.
