Lyrics

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Experiencing a rare occurrence in my life where I have someone who depends on me.

Someone I’ve needed so long

Expressing a long-felt need for someone special.

For once unafraid I can go where life leads me and somehow I know I’ll be strong

Feeling unafraid for the first time, able to follow the path of life, and having confidence in my strength.


For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of

Having the opportunity to experience what my heart had dreamt of in the past.

Long before I knew

Reflecting on a time before awareness, when certain dreams were not realized.

Someone warm like you

Expressing warmth and connection with someone, possibly a romantic partner.

Who have my dreams come true

Acknowledging that dreams are coming true with the presence of this special person.


For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Deciding not to let sorrow affect me, breaking free from past pain.

Not like it's hurt me before

Comparing the current state to past hurtful experiences and emphasizing a change.


For once I have someone I know won't desert me

Expressing confidence that the mentioned person will not abandon or leave.

I’m not alone anymore

Feeling a sense of togetherness and no longer being alone.


For once I can say

Expressing ownership and pride in declaring something as personal and valuable.

This is mine you can’t take it

Asserting possession of something and preventing others from taking it away.

As long as I know I have love I can make it

Stating that having love provides the strength to overcome challenges.

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Reiterating the joy of having someone who depends on me in my life.


For once I can say

Repeating the sense of ownership and pride in declaring something as personal and valuable.

This is mine you can’t take it

Reasserting possession of something and preventing others from taking it away.


As long as I know I have love we can make it

Empty line, possibly indicating a moment of reflection or transition in emotions.

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Reiterating the joy of having someone who depends on me in my life.
