6 How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You) [Originally Performed by James Taylor]

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

(When) I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
(When) I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
With sweet love and devotion (now)
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I wanna stop and thank you baby, yes I do

How sweet it is to be loved by you, feels so fine
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 wanna stop and thank you baby
I just wanna stop and thank you baby, oh yes

How sweet it is to be loved by you,
How sweet it is to be loved by you,

You were better to me than I was to myself
For me, there's you (baby) and there ain't nobody else
I wanna stop and thank you baby
I just wanna stop and thank you baby, oh yes

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
(Let's bring it on down)
(Let's bring it on down)
Just wanna stop and thank you baby, yeah now
And I think it's so strong, the feeling's so right,
Stop and thank you baby, yeah
Love thing, little love thing, little love thing, little love thing
Gotta stop and thank you baby
I say, well now, well now, well now, well now, well now, well now,
Well now, well now, well now, well now, well now, well now,
Well now, well now baby,
To be loved by you, to be loved by you
Just like honey to the bee, baby,
Sugar to the sugar cane,
It's jelly to the doughtnut,
It's like a lover to a lonely man!
Ohhhh, well I know,
To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved,
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved,
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved,
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved,
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved,
Ye-ah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I want you to do us a favor now,
Yeeeaaah
