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
