Livin' Thing

Sailin' away on the crest of a wave, it's like magic

Oh, rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin', it's magic

And you and your sweet desire

You took me, oh (higher and higher, baby)

It's a livin' thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a givin' thing

What a terrible thing to lose

I'm takin' a dive

Dive

Makin' believe this is what you've conceived

From your worst day (I'm takin' a dive)

Oh, movin' 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)

It's a livin' thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a givin' thing

What a terrible thing to lose

I'm takin' a dive

All the same

Hey

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

Floating downstream (I'm takin' a dive)

Oh, 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)

It's a livin' thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a givin' thing

What a terrible thing to lose

It's a livin' thing

It's a terrible thing to lose

It's a givin' thing
