Stevie Wonder - For Once In My Life (Live/1969) Lyrics

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,

Ohhhhh someone warm like you,
Would make my dreams come true,
Yeah, yeah yeah.

For once in my life,
I wont let sorrow hurt me,
Not like it's hurt me before,
For once I have something I know wont desert me,
I'm not alone anymore,
For once I can say,
'This is mine you can't take it'
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life,
I have someone who needs me,

(Ha ha ha heyyy yeah!
Oh baby love baby.)

For once in my life

*Instrumental solo*

For once in my life,
I wont let sorrow hurt me,
Not like it's hurt me before,
For once I have something I know wont desert me,
I'm not alone anymore,
For once I can say,
'This is mine you can't take it!'
As long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life,
I have someone who needs me,

(Ohh! For once in my life,
Yeah,
Somebody that needs me,
Ooooh baby!
For once in my life.)
