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 Oh 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" As long as I know I have love, I can make it For once in my life, I have someone who needs me Hey yeah, oh baby, oh baby 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 Oh for once in my life, yeah somebody like needs me Ooh baby
