Текст песни For Once In My Life (Extended Version) - James Brown

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 would be strong
For once I can touch what my heart
Used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my
Dream come true
Maybe
For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it hurt me before
For once I have something
That won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore, it won't desert me
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, yeah!
For once in my life, someone needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I'm not scared
I can go where life leads me
'Cause I know
I've got to be strong
For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of, hah!
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true
For once in my life, I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it did before
For once I have something
I know won't desert me
I'm not lonely anymore
For once I can say
"This is mine, you can't take it"
As long as I know
I have love, we can make it
For once in my life
I have someone, someone who needs me
