Goodbye old friend

This is the end of the man I used to be

Mmm

This is a change in me

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Someone I've needed so long

Hey for once unafraid I can go where life leads me

And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of

Long before I knew

Ooh that someone warm like you

Would make my dreams come true

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Not like it's hurt me before not like it's hurt before

For once I have something I know won't desert me

I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say this is mine you can't take it

Long as I know I have love I can make it

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

For once in my life ooh mmm

For once in my life ooh

For once in my life ooh

For once in my life ooh

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Not like it hurt me before

Not like it's hurt before

Ooh for once I have something I know won't desert me

I'm not alone anymore

Ooh for once I can say

This is mine you can't take it

Long as I know I have love I can make it

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

For once in my life ooh

Mmm needs me

For once in my life ooh oh for once in my life

For once in my life ooh someone who needs me

For once in my life ooh mmm ooh

For once in my life ooh someone who needs
