LIVING THING Sailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin' It's magic Chorus And you, and your sweet desire, You took me, ooh, woah, 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 conceived From your worst day, (I'm thinking of dying) Moving in line then you look back in time To the first day (I'm thinking, I'm thinking) Repeat Chorus Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide Floating downstream, (I'm thinking of dying) So let her go don't start spoiling the show It's a bad dream (I'm thinking , I'm thinking ) Repeat Chorus It's a livin' thing, It's a terrible thing to lose, It's a terrible thing to lose What a terrible thing to lose
