[Intro]
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
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

[Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby, yes I do
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Verse 2]
I open my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
All the things I've done, well I've done 'em before
But you brighten up all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
[Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby, whoa yes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 2]
Open my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
All the things I've done, you know, I've done 'em before
But you brighten up all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways

[Chorus]
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby
I want to stop (Stop) and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Sweeter than the honey from the bees, baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
You know, darling
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
