For once in my life I have someone who needs me Someone I've needed so long For once unafraid I can go where life leads me Somehow I know I'll be strong For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of Long before I knew Someone warm like you Who'd make my dreams come true For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me Not like it's hurt me before For once I have something I know won't desert me I'm not alone anymore For once I can say This is mine, you can't take it As long as I know I have love, I can make it For once in my life I have someone who needs me For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of Long before I knew Someone warm like you Who'd make my dreams come true, hey, yeah For once I can say This is mine, you can't take it As long as I know I have love, I can make it For once in my life I have someone who needs me, hey, yeah I said for once in my life I have someone who needs me Hear me talkin' I said for once in my life I have someone who needs me Yeah, oh, I said for once in my life
