livin' thing

sailin' away on the crest of a wave

it's like magic

rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'

it's magic

and you

and your sweet desire

you took me

higher and higher

baby

it's a livin' thing

it's a terrible thing to lose

it's a given thing

what a terrible thing to lose. making believe this is what you've conceived

from your worst day

moving in line when you look back in time

to your first day

and you

and your sweet desire

you took me

higher and higher baby

it's a livin' thing

it's a terrible thing to lose

it's a given thing

what a terrible thing to lose. takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide

floating downstream

so let her go don't start spoiling the show

it's a bad dream

and you

and your sweet desire

you took me

higher and higher baby

it's a livin' thing

it's a terrible thing to lose

it's a given thing

what a terrible thing to lose.
