for once in my life

for once in my life i have someone who needs me

someone i've needed so

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

i'm not alone anymore

for once i can say: this is mine you can't take it"
