For Once In My Life (Live At The Hollywood Palace, 1970) Lyrics

For once in my life
I had someone who needs me
Someone I needed so long
You know, in order for me to do this song right
I need a beautiful, fine, healthy girl
(Are you ready to go, Lee?)
Oh, I said healthy
(Aw)
But you'll do, baby, you'll do, you'll do

Long before I knew
Oh, someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true
Yeah, baby

For once in my life

I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have someone that not 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
Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah

Gotta give my partner
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby

For once in my life
For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Hey, hey
Not like it's hurt me before
Not like it's hurt me, baby
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 Diana, I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me

Hey, for once in my life
Hey, somebody that needs me
Ooh baby, for once in my life
Please don't stop
Don't let that feeling drop, baby
I say, yeah, baby, yeah
