How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) (Live) Lyrics

[Spoken Intro]
Thank you

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you, yes, baby, huh
How sweet it is to be loved by you, oh darling

[Verse 1]
I needed the shelter of someone's arms
Honey, there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
There you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotions

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to stop and thank you, baby
I want to stop and thank you, baby
Hey now

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
And I know it’s so sweet, darling
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Yes it is
[Verse 2]
I close my eyes at night
And wonder where would I be without you in my life
Everything iss just a bore
All the things I did, seems I'd done it before
But you brightened up all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to stop and thank you, baby
I want to stop and thank you, baby
Hey now

[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
And I know, yes I know
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I want you to believe me, baby, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
You were better to me than I've been to myself
For me, there’s you, honey, nobody else
Stop, and thank you, baby
I just want to stop and thank you, baby
Hey now
[Chorus]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Well, well, well, well, well
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Oh honey, have mercy

[Outro]
Ah, it's sweet, baby, how sweet it is
And I know it's so sweet being loved by you, honey
Ah baby, huh, oh, it's so sweet
I, I, I, I know it's so so sweet
I want everybody in the house to repeat after me
Nothing to it, everybody, come on
Say "How sweet"
"How sweet"
"How sweet"
Sounded good
"How sweet"
"How sweet"
"How sweet"
Yeah yeah, ah, how sweet it is to be loved by you
Uh-huh, one more thing
I want everybody in the house to turn to the person sitting next to 'em
And tell 'em "How sweet it is"
Tell 'em "How sweet it is"
They’re sitting next to you, how sweet it is, haha
Oh, how sweet it is to be loved by you, come on, baby, ah
How sweet it is to be loved by you
And I know, how sweet it is to be loved by you, baby, yeah yeah yeah
How sweet it is to be loved by you, baby, oh, oh, yeah
How sweet it is to be loved by you, baby, yeah yeah yeah
How sweet it is to be loved by you, and you, and you
Thank you very kindly, ladies and gentlemen
You’re very very kind
