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 wanna stop and thank you baby

I just wanna stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you

Like honey to the bee, baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night

Wondering where would I be without you in my life

Everything was just a bore

All the things I did seemed undone never before

But you brighten up all my days

With a love so sweet in so many ways

I wanna, I wanna thank you baby

I just wanna thank you baby

Oh now, how sweet it is to be loved by you

Like sugar to my soul baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better to me than I was to myself

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

I wanna thank you baby

I just wanna stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you

Like sugar to my soul baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you

No baby, how sweet it is, how sweet it is now baby

Oh no, like sugar to my soul baby

Hey, 'coz I love you baby

No, you make me something baby

When I'm loved by you, I close my eyes at night
