How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) by Joan Osborne lyrics

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
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 brightened up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I want to stop and 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've been to myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

[Repeat and fade:]
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I was actually listening to Joan yesterday and now I think these two might come to mind from now on. LOL You have a way of making it all seem so logical and giving a whole new meaning to their looks. Great job making the vid and lots of prettiness to look at! :)

hehe, thanks darling. I couldn't decide whether I wanted to completely rewrite their history to its more crackish potential, or if I wanted to keep it more realistic and about the canon development of their understanding/connection--so it ended up with a bit of both. But this song has been stuck in my head for several days and I kept seeing their scenes from Son Also Rises, so I had to do something about it ;)

I finished it in the middle of the night (stupid insomnia, grrrrr), and I still can't believe I convinced Sam to check it over for me, or you would have been on the receiving end of some sleep-deprived beta request emails this morning :) Hopefully I don't get to crazy excited over Lost tonight and still manage to go to sleep at a decent hour!

I was thinking that maybe you just dont need me anymore ;) hehe. But when watching it, there really wasn't anything that I could think that wasn't perfect. :) I'm always up way too late so chances are you could catch me. That is totally funny that Sam was your beta! Awesome. :)

Can't wait to hear your thoughts on LOST. I'm still reeling so I cant quite get my head around it, but man it BLEW MY MIND!

Never fear darling! I will always need you :) Sam was helpful, but you know the show much more intimately so your feedback and suggestions are more constructive.

And LOST OMG. I think I may to write a separate post/email to you just about that. Out the window and fell down 8 frakkin stories, holy shit! And I haven't really shipped Jack/Kate in a while but that scene in the game room was just AMAZING. gahhhhh.

Never fear darling! I will always need you :)

Aw, I feel the love :)

I've never really shipped Jack and Kate, (I dont ship Kate and Sawyer either really) but YES that scene, WOW, *swoon* I actually paused it to study the icon possibilities ;)
