| 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 brightened 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 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
|
| You were better to me than I’ve been to 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
|
| (repeat and fade):
|
| How sweet it is to be loved by you
|
| How sweet it is to be loved by you |
