For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once I'm afraid
I could 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 do
Oh, someone warm like you
Would make my dream 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
Someone who needs me
Someone who needs me

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
Someone who needs me
For once in my life
Someone who needs me
Somebody that needs me
Someone who needs me
Ooh baby, for-once in my life
