Paul Anka
For Once in My Life
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
Could 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 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"
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
For once I can say
"This is mine, you cannot take it"
Long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
