How Sweet It Is

Joan Osborne · How Sweet It Is [2002]

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



How sweet it is

To be loved by you, okay

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 such 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 just wanna stop and thank you baby

I just wanna stop and thank you baby

I just wanna stop and thank you baby

I just wanna stop, thank you baby, baby



Oh baby, oh baby

How sweet it is



You were better to me than I was for myself

For me, there's you and there ain't nobody

Nobody, nobody else



How sweet it is, oh God

To be loved by you

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
