For Once In My Life

Artie:

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

Long before I knew

Whoa, someone warm like you

Would make my dreams come true

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(New Directions: For once in my life)



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

Not like it's hurt me before (New Directions: Not like it's hurt before)

For once, I have something I know won't desert me

I'm not alone anymore (New Directions: I'm not alone anymore)



For once, I can say, (New Directions: Oooh)

This is mine, you can't take it (New Directions: Oooh)

As long as I know I have love, I can make it (New Directions: Oooh)

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



New Directions:

Someone who needs me!



Artie:

Ha, ha, ha

Hey, yeah



New Directions:

Someone who needs me!



Artie:

Oh baby, love baby



New Directions:

For once in my life...



Someone who needs me



Artie:

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

(New Directions: For once in my life)

Not like it's hurt me before (New Directions: Not like it's hurt before)

For once, I have something I know won't desert me (New Directions: Oooh)

I'm not alone anymore (New Directions: I'm not alone anymore)



For once, I can say, (New Directions: Oooh)

This is mine, you can't take it (New Directions: Oooh)

As long as I know I have love, I can make it (New Directions: Oooh)

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

(New Directions: Someone who needs me!)



Ho, for once in my life



New Directions:

Someone who needs me!

Yeah!



Artie:

Yeah

Somebody that needs me



New Directions:

Someone who needs me

Yeah!



Artie:

Ooh baby,

For once in my life



New Directions (with Artie):

Someone who needs me (Oh baby)

Yeah!

For once in my life
