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
Would 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 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)
(someone who needs me)
