For Once In My Life

For once in my life I've got someone who needs me,

Someone I've needed so long;
Dm          Dm7+        Dm7             G7
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me,
C         Dm7   G7        C     C/B
Somehow I know I'll be strong.
     Am         Am7+          Am7            D
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
F    Cdim        A7  Dm7
Long before  I  knew

Someone warm like  you

Could make my dreams come true.
