Verse 1
    D          Daug         D6          D7
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me;
Em            Eaug      Em7  Em6
 Someone I've needed so long.
    Em        Eaug         Em7           Em6
For once, una-fraid, I can go where life leads me;
    D         A7           D
And somehow I know I'll be strong.
Chorus 1
    D           D6            Daug
For once, I can touch what my heart used to dream of,
G              Em   A7
 Long before I knew;
Dmaj7    F#m       Bm         Em7                 A7
 Someone warm like you, would make my dreams come true.
Verse 2
    D          Daug          D6         D7
For once in my life, I won't let sorrow hurt me;
Em           Eaug       Em7  Em6
 Not like it hurt me be-fore.
    Em          Eaug         Em7           Em6
For once I have something, I know won't de-sert me;
D          A7       D
 I'm not a-lone any-more.
Chorus 2
    D           D6           Daug

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