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 wanna stop and thank you baby I just wanna stop and thank you baby How sweet it is to be loved by you Like honey to the bee, baby 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 was just a bore All the things I did seemed undone never before But you brighten up all my days With a love so sweet in so many ways I wanna, I wanna thank you baby I just wanna thank you baby Oh now, how sweet it is to be loved by you Like sugar to my soul baby How sweet it is to be loved by you You were better to me than I was to myself For me there's you and there ain't nobody else I wanna thank you baby I just wanna stop and 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 No baby, how sweet it is, how sweet it is now baby Oh no, like sugar to my soul baby Hey, 'coz I love you baby No, you make me something baby When I'm loved by you, I close my eyes at night
