Livin' Thing Lyrics - Light Years - Electric Light Orchestra

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, ohh, 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 

I'm takin' a dive 

Making believe this is what you've conceived 

From your worst day, I'm takin' a dive 

Oh, moving in line when you look back in time 

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

And you and your sweet desire 

You took me (Don't you do it, don't you do it), ohh, 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 

And I'm takin' a dive, ah the slide, hey 

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

Floating downstream, I'm takin a dive 

Ah, 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 

You took me(Don't you do it, don't you do it), ohh, 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 

It's a livin' thing 

It's a terrible thing to lose 

It's a given thing 

What a terrible thing to lose
