I needed the shelter
of someone's arms
And there you were
I needed someone
to understand my
ups and downs
There you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touchin' my emotion
I wanna stop
and thank you baby
I wanna stop
and thank you baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
Like honey to a bee baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
I close my eyes at night
Wonderin' where would I be
without you in my life
Everything was just a bore
All the things I did
Seemed I'd done them before
But you brighten up
for me all of my days
With a love so sweet
in so many ways
I wanna thank you baby
I just wanna thank you baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
Like sugar to my soul baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
Oo
Ah yeah yeah yeah
You were better for me
than I was for myself
For me there's you
And there ain't nobody else
I wanna stop
and thank you baby
I just wanna stop
and thank you baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
Like sugar to my soul baby
How sweet it is
to be loved by you
Close my eyes at night
