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
Gently touching my emotion

I want to stop - to thank you baby

I want to stop - to 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 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 may ways

I want to stop - to thank you baby

I want to stop - to 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 was to myself

To me there is you and there ain't nobody else

I want to stop - to thank you baby
