For Once in My Life

Brenda Lee · Johnny One Time [Decca] [1969]

(Ronald Miller - Orlando Murden)



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

Somehow I know I'll be strong

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

Now and then for I knew someone warm like you

Would 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

Long as I know I have love I can make it

For once in my life I have someone who needs me, yeah, yeah

Someone who needs me, yeah.
