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
