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

How sweet it is to be loved by you

Ooh, baby, 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 (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

Stop (stop) and thank you baby

I want to stop (stop) and thank you baby

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 in my soul

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