For once in my life

I've got someone who needs me

Someone I've needed so long

For once unafraid

I can go where life leads me

And 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

Could 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've got someone

I know won't desert me

'Cause I'm not alone anymore



For once I can say

This is mine, you can't take it

As long as I've got love I know I can make it

For once in my life

I've got someone who needs me



At least I can say

This is mine, you can't take it

As long as I've got love I know I can make it

For once in my life

I've got someone who needs me

For once in my life

I find someone

I've got someone who needs me
