The Grateful Dead
How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) (Live at Academy of Music, New York, NY, March 25, 1972)
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
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 wanna stop and thank you baby
I wanna stop and thank you baby

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
I open my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything was such a bore
All the things I've done seems I'vе done them beforе
But you brightened up all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna stop and thank you baby
I wanna stop and thank you baby

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2 repeated]
I open my eyes at night
Wondering where'd I be without you in my life
Everything was such a bore
All the things I've done seems I've done them before
But you brightened up all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna stop and thank you baby
I wanna stop and thank you baby

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
(Yes, it is, baby)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
(Oh yes, yes)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
(Oh, come on now, baby)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
