"Ally McBeal: For Once in My Life"

For once in my life

I have someone who needs me

Someone Ive needed so long

For once unafraid

I can go where life leads me

And somehow I know Ill be strong

For once I can touch

What my heart used to dream of

Long before I knew

Someone warm like you

Could make my dreams come true

For once in my life

I wont let sorrow hurt me

Not like its hurt me before, oh

For once Ive got something

I know wont desert me

Cause Im not alone anymore

For once I can say

This is mine, you cant take it

As long as Ive got love I know I can make it

For once in my life

Ive got someone who needs me
