It's A Living Thing

It's A Living Thing
Sailing away on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Oh, rolling and riding and slipping and sliding
It's magic
And you and your sweet desire
You took me, oh higher and higher, baby
It's a living 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
Oh, moving in line when you look back in time
To the first day
And you and your sweet desire
Don't you do it, don't you do it
Oh, higher and higher, baby
It's a living thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
Taking 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
Don't you do it, don't you do it
Oh, higher and higher, baby
It's a living thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
It's a living thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
