For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know Ill be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Ooh, ooh, ooh, someone warm like you
Would ever dream of makin my dreams come true

For once in my life
I wont let sorrow hurt me
Not like its hurt me before, oh
For once I have something I know wont desert me
Cause Im not alone anymore

For once I can say
This is mine, you cant take it
As long as I know Ive got love I can make it
For once in my life
Ive got that someone who needs me
Mmm...hmm...hmm...

For once I can say
This is sho nuff mine, you cant take it
As long as I know Ive got love I can make it
For once in my life
Ive got that someone who needs me

Oh, yes, he does
Ive got that someone who needs me
He told me this mornin that he needed me
Mmm...mmm...I believe
