Needed the shelter of someone's arms
And there you were
Needed someone to understand my ups and downs
And there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Touching my emotion
Chorus:
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
I close my eyes at night
Wondering where I would be without you in my life
Everything I did was such a bore
Everywhere I went
You know I've been there before
But you brightened up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so may ways
Chorus...
You were better to me
Than I was to my self
For me there is you
And there ain't nobody else
Chorus...
I mean it's like cowabulla
Don't you know to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you 2x
