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



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 want to stop (stop) and thank you baby

I just want to stop and thank you baby, hey now

How sweet it is to be loved by you, oh baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you, yes it is



Close my eyes at night,

And wonder what would I be without you in my life

Everything was just a bore,

All the things I did,

Seems I've done 'em before

But you brightened up all of my days

With a love so sweet in so many ways



I want to stop (stop) and thank you baby

I want to stop (stop) and thank you baby, yeah

How sweet it is to be loved by you, oh yes it is

How sweet it is to be loved by you, yes it is baby



You were better to me than I've been to myself

For me, there's you and nobody else



I want to stop (stop) and thank you baby

I want to stop (stop) and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you, tell the truth baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you, well it's like sugar in my soul

How sweet it is to be loved by you, oh yes it is
