LYRICS
How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You) by Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland & Edward Holland
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
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 wanna stop and thank you baby, yes I do
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Feels so fine
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 brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I wanna stop and thank you, baby
I just wanna stop and thank you baby, oh yes
How sweet it is to be loved by you
It's like sugar sometimes
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 stop and thank you, baby
I just wanna stop and thank you baby, oh now
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
It's like jelly, baby, oh now
How sweet it is to be loved by you, oh now
How sweet it is to be loved by you
Just like honey to the bee baby, yeah now
Na, na, na, to be loved by you

We sang this beautiful song at a church service a few years ago. It fit very well.

What class, he is not pompous at all! Just wearing shirt and pants with a belt!!! Definitely a naturally born artist!! So enjoyable!

[@williamh.schmidtjr.7614]

I played this song for my college sweetheart in the 1970s. How sweet it was!! Thank you James so very much.

[@jenmorricone4014]

Ah, in college my boyfriend used to play , The Girl from Ipanema on the tenor sax for me,. Nothing more pleasant than a bit of bossa nova on a summer night. Im sure your college lady remembers you fondly.❤

JT and the band always seem to be having a great time when you see them live in concert!

[@merryc198]

I was gifted a radio/cassette recorder for Christmas 1975.
I recorded the top 100 songs on the year on my favorite radio station. (I know ... copyright infringement 😢)
Can't remember where thus song ranked but I loved it ! Began my love for JT.
Still have the cassette... no tape deck on which to play it.😅
Thanks for your music James!

[@salvadorsepulveda6415]

Your beautiful songs were played at our high school campfire meets back in the 70s and late 60s. ❤️ 🙏

I wonder if JT and his family have heard Richie Havens singing Fire and Rain in studio. It's here on TH-cam and quite moving.

[@onefoot7]

They used to party together, circa 1969, FYI...so, I'd say yes
