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 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

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
