How sweet it is to be loved by you
|
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 brightened 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 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 to me than I've been to 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
|
|
[Repeat and fade:]
|
How sweet it is to be loved by you
|
How sweet it is to be loved by you
