How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)

[Chorus 1]

How sweet it is to be loved by you

How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus 2]

I want to stop and thank you baby

I just want to stop and thank you baby

[Chorus 1]

How sweet it is to be loved by you

How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Verse 2]

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

But you brightened up for me all of my days

With a love so sweet in so many ways

I want to stop and thank you baby

I want to stop and thank you baby

[Chorus 1]

How sweet it is to be loved by you

How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Bridge]

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

For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else

[Chorus 2]

I want to stop and thank you baby

I just want to stop and thank you baby

[Chorus 1]

How sweet it is to be loved by you

How sweet it is to be loved by you
