For once in my life I've got 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 For once I've got someone I know won't desert me, and 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
