"For Once in My Life" — Ronald Miller and Orlando Murden's 1965 arrival.
Writer(s): murden/miller
For once in my life Ive got someone who needs me
Someone Ive needed so long
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know Ill be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true
For once in my life I wont let sorrow hurt me
Not like its hurt me before
For once Ive got someone I know wont desert me
And Im not alone anymore
For once I can say: "this is mine you cant take it"
As long as Ive got love I know I can make it
For once in my life Ive got someone who needs me

- Written by Ronald Miller and Orlando Murden in 1965. Sinatra's Reprise recording preceded Stevie Wonder's famous version (1967). The announcement of the first genuine experience of love — for once in my life I have someone who needs me.
