For Once in My Life lyrics

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 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 someone

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 say

"this is mine, you cannot take it".

Long as I know I have love, I can make it.

For once in my life,

I have someone who needs me.
