                        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 want to stop and thank you baby 

                        I just want to stop and thank you baby 



                        How sweet it is to be loved by you 

                        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 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 

                        I want to stop and thank you baby 

                        I just want to stop and thank you baby 



                        How sweet it is to be loved by you 

                        How sweet it is to be loved by you 



                        You were better for me than I was for myself 

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

                        I want to stop and thank you baby 

                        I just want to stop and thank you baby
