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
Ohh, someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true, yeah, yeah, yeah

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"
Long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

He he he hey yeah
Oh baby, oh baby

For once in my life

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"
Long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

Oh, for once in my life
Yeah, somebody that needs me
Ooh baby, for once in my life
