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've 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
That 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
