For Once in My Life Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

[Intro]
(Goodbye, old friend)
Goodbye, love
(This is the end of the man I used to be)
Mmm
(This is a change in me)

[Verse 1]
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
Hey, 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
Ooh, that someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true

[Verse 2]
For once in my life, I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before (Not like it's hurt before)
For once, I have something 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
