[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop)
And thank you, baby
I want to stop (Stop)
And thank you, baby
Yeah, now
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I know that's right
[Bridge]
(There you were)
(There you were)
[Pre-Chorus]
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
[Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop)
And thank you, baby
Let me stop (Stop)
Thank you, baby
Yeah, now
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
[Verse 2]
Close my eyes at night
And wonder where 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 brighten up all of my days
With a love that's sweet in so many ways
[Pre-Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop)
And thank you, baby
Let me stop (Stop)
And thank you, baby
Yeah, now
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I know that's right
[Refrain]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Say it again, say it again (Oh)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby (Oh yeah)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Say it again, say it again
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yeah, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you, uh
[Outro]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
