Lyrics

[Intro]
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
There you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
There you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
[PreChorus]
I want to stop
And thank you, baby
I wanna stop
And thank you, baby
Yes, I do
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Feels so fine
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 brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
[PreChorus]
I wanna stop
And thank you, baby
I just wanna stop
And thank you, baby
Oh, yes
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
It's just like sugar sometimes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh, yeah
[Bridge]
You were better to me than I was to myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
[PreChorus]
I wanna stop
And thank you, baby
I just wanna stop
And thank you, baby
Oh, yes
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh, now
How sweet it is to be loved by you
It's like jelly, baby, oh, now
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Just like honey to the bee, baby, yeah, now
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
