For Once in My Life

Good bye, old friend, This is the end of the man(girl) I used to be, 'Cause there's been a strange and welcome change in me. 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 would make my dream 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 I know won't desert me, I'm not alone anymore. For once I can say this is mine, you can't take it, Long as I know I have love, I can make it, For once in my life I have someone who needs me. 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 would make my dream 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 I know won't desert me, I'm not alone anymore. For once I can say this is mine, you can't take it, Long as I know I have love, I can make it, For once I can feel that somebody's heard my plea,
