Lyrics Sammy Davis, Jr.

Sammy Davis, Jr.

For Once In My Life

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

This time I know I’ll be strong

For once I can touch

What my heart used to dream of

Long before I knew

Someone warm like you

Will make my dreams come true

For once in my life

I won’t let sorrow hurt me

Not like it hurt me before

I've found me someone

I know won’t desert me

I won't be alone anymore

For once I can say

This is mine, they can’t take it

As long as I’ve got the love

I know I'm gonna make it

For once in my life

I’ve got someone who needs me

Yeah, 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

And this time I know I’ll be strong

For once I can touch

What my heart only used to dream of

Long before I knew

Someone warm like you

Will make my dreams

I said make my dreams

I said make my dreams come true

For once in my life

I won’t let sorrow hurt me

Not like it hurt me before

I've found me something

That I know won’t desert me

I'll never be alone anymore

For once I can say

This is mine, you better not take it

Long as I’ve got the [Incomprehensible]

I know I'm gonna make it

For once in my life

I’ve got someone who needs me

For once I can say

This is mine, you better not take it

Long as I’ve got the love

I know I'm gonna make it

For once in my life

I’ve got someone who needs me

For once in my life

I’ve got someone who needs me

Can you dig it? It feels groovy

And I mean it

For once in my life, that's it
