Lyrics

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yes, baby, ooh-ooh-ooh
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Ooh, baby
[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 emotions
[PreChorus]
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Stop
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Stop
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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 done 'em before
But your brighten up all my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
[PreChorus]
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Stop
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Stop
[Chorus]
Yeah, how sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh yes, it is, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yes it is, baby, mmm
[Bridge]
Hmm
[Bridge]
You were better to me, than I've been to myself
For me, there's you and nobody else
[PreChorus]
Stop and thank you, baby
Stop
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
Stop
[Chorus]
Oh, 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 to my soul
[Outro]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh yes, it is, baby
Hey now
How sweet it is
