Verse 1:

For once in my [D+]life,
I have someone who needs me;
Someone I’ve [E+]needed so long.

For once, una-[E+]fraid,
I can go where life leads me;
End somehow I know I’ll be strong.

Chorus 1:

For once, I can touch,
What my [D+]heart used to dream of,
Long before I knew;
Someone warm like you,
Would make my dreams come true.

Verse 2:

For once in my [D+]life,
I won’t let sorrow hurt me;
Not like it [E+]hurt me be-fore.

For once I have [E+]something,
I know won’t de-sert me;
I’m not a-lone any-more.

Chorus 2:

For once, I can say;
This is [D+]mine you can’t take it,
As long as I know,
I have love; I can make it.
For once in my [D+]life,
I have some-one who needs me.

Break:

Some-one, who needs me.

Some-one, who needs me.
