Natalia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wont let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can make it
I have someone who needs me
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
Somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oh someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true
Yeah yeah, yeah
For once in my life
I wont let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I say
This is mine you can't take it
As 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
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I say
This is mine you can't take it
As long as I know I have love I can't take it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
For once in my life
is a song about finding love and companionship after a period of loneliness and heartache. The lyrics express the singer's newfound confidence and determination to hold onto this love and not let sorrow from the past impact their relationship. The singer acknowledges the vulnerability and fear that they have experienced before, but notes that this time they have found someone who needs them, and they feel strong and unafraid. The song's optimistic and joyful tone celebrates the power of love to heal and transform.
The phrase "For once in my life" is repeated several times throughout the song, emphasizing the singer's sense of disbelief and gratitude for their current situation. The lyrics also highlight the importance of having something to hold onto, whether it is love or a personal strength, in order to overcome obstacles and navigate life's ups and downs.
One interesting fact about this song is that it was written by Ron Miller and Orlando Murden in 1967, and initially recorded by Jean DuShon. However, it was Stevie Wonder's rendition in 1968 that became the most well-known and beloved version of the song. Many other artists have covered the song over the years, including Tony Bennett, Michael Bublé, and Diana Ross.
Another interesting fact is that the song's lyrics have been interpreted as a reflection of Stevie Wonder's own life, as he had recently lost his mother and was feeling lost and alone before finding love with his wife, Syreeta Wright. Wonder's soulful performance of the song is credited with bringing out the emotional depth and intensity of the lyrics.
The song also became popular in the Northern soul music scene in the UK, and was frequently played in dance clubs and at all-nighters in the '70s and '80s. Its upbeat tempo and catchy melody make it a popular choice for covers and sing-alongs.
Chords (as performed by Stevie Wonder):

For once in my life
Finally, after all this time
I wont let sorrow hurt me
I refuse to let sadness and pain affect me
Not like it's hurt me before
I have been hurt in the past, but not this time
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I finally have something reliable and constant in my life
I'm not alone anymore
I am no longer by myself
For once I say
I finally declare
This is mine you can't take it
I possess something that cannot be taken from me
As long as I know I have love I can make it
With this love, I can overcome anything
For once in my life
Finally, after all this time
I have someone who needs me
There is someone who relies on me
Someone I've needed so long
This is a person I have been searching for, for a long time
For once unafraid
Finally, without fear
I can go where life leads me
I can follow wherever life takes me
Somehow I know I'll be strong
I realize my strength
For once I can touch
Finally, I can reach out and grasp
What my heart used to dream of
What I fantasized about as a child
Long before I knew
Before I fully understood
Oh someone warm like you
I have found someone kind and caring like you
Would make my dreams come true
Who has made my wishes a reality
Yeah yeah, yeah
Yes, this is true
For once in my life
