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

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

For I needed the shelter of someones arms
Darlin', there you were
When I needed someone to understand my ups and my downs
Oh, baby, there you were

With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I just can't stop, just to thank you, baby
I just want to stop, just to thank you, baby, yes I do

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

Well I'm gonna close my eyes at night now
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
And everything I was into which was just a bore
And everywhere I went I'd think I've been here before

But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop just to thank you, baby
I just want to stop just to thank you, baby, 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
For me, there's you, baby, there ain't nobody else
I gotta stop so I can thank you, baby
I just want to stop like to thank you baby, yeah now

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Let's bring it on now

Well I just gotta stop and thank you, baby get down
And I think so strong, the feeling's so right
Stop and thank you, baby, baby
Love thing, love thing
Love thing, love thing
Gotta stop and thank you, baby

I say well now, well now, well now
Well now, well now, well now
Well now, well now, well now
Well now, well now, well now baby
To be loved be you

It's like a honey to the bee, baby
Sugar to the sugarcane
Jelly to the don't love
It's like a walk to a lonely man
Over and over

To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved
To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved
To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved
To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved
To be loved, to be loved, to be truly, truly loved, yeah

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is

And it feels just about right
Feels alright tonight
To be loved by you

James Taylor

James Taylor (born 12th March 1948) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, born in Boston, Massachusetts. He grew up in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where his father Isaac Taylor was the dean of the University of North Carolina Medical School. His family summered on Martha's Vineyard.

Taylor's career began in the mid-1960s, and was the first artist signed to The Beatles's Apple Records. He found further success in the early 1970s, singing sensitive and gentle acoustic songs. He was part of a wave of soft singer-songwriters of the time that also included Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Crosby, Stills & Nash, John Denver, Jackson Browne, and Carly Simon (whom he later married).

His 1976 Greatest Hits album was certified Diamond and has sold 12 million US copies. Following his 1977 album, JT, he has retained a large audience over the decades. Every album that he released from 1977 to 2006 sold over a million copies.

In March 2010 he commenced the Troubadour Reunion Tour with Carole King and members of his original band, including Russ Kunkel, Leland Sklar, and Danny Kortchmar. They played shows in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and North America, including the final event at Pittsburgh's Mellon Arena. The tour was a major commercial success, and in some locations found Taylor playing arenas instead of his usual theatres or amphitheatres. With an average capacity of 95% for the shows, the tour raised millions for various charities of Taylor and King's choice.

His 2015 album Before This World became his first number one. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
