Born... for real... not silent... not invisible. The splendor of the Blue Ridge... loving just because. Seen... but known? What rhythm pulses through my veins? Who's song do my fingers tap? Who has my daddy taught me to be?

lyrics

Can hide away in silence
Disguising what is true
Play the game of pretty words
What good would it do?

When in love, in love I can be
The man my daddy taught me to be

Can leave behind hopes and dreams
To fade like memories
Spend my life on this world’s wealth
That won’t get me free

So in love, in love I will be
The man my daddy taught me to be

My love I won’t be silent
I’ll tell you where I stand
Won’t live life pretending
Be just who I am

For in love, in love I must be
The man my daddy taught me to be
For in love, in love I must be
The man my daddy taught me to be
