I needed the shelter of someone's arms
And there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
And there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Oh yes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Feels so fine
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
You brighten up for me all of my days
Love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you, baby
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Oh yes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
And my sugar, sometimes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
You were better for me than I was for myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you, baby
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
