Livin' Thing lyrics

Sailin' away on the crest of a wave

It's like magic

Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin'

It's magic

And you and your sweet desire

You took me, oh, higher and higher, baby

Chorus:

It's a living thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a given thing

What a terrible thing to lose

I'm takin a dive, dive

Making believe this is what you conceived

From your worst day, I'm takin a dive

Moving in line, then you look back in time

To the first day, I'm takin', I'm takin'

And you and your sweet desire

Don't you do it, don't you do it

You took me, oh, higher and higher, baby

Chorus:

It's a living thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a given thing

What a terrible thing to lose

I'm takin a dive

Halt the slide!

Hey!

Takin' a dive, 'cause you can't halt the slide

Floating downstream, I'm takin a dive

So let her go, don't start spoiling the show

It's a bad dream, I'm takin', I'm takin'

And you and your sweet desire

Don't you do it, don't you do it

You took me, oh, higher and higher, baby

Chorus: (×2)

It's a livin' thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a given thing

What a terrible thing to lose
