For Once

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 

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, oh 

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
