ELO Part II - Livin' Thing lyrics

Sailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin' It's magic And you, and your sweet desire, You took me, higher and higher 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 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 'cause 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 It's a livin' thing, It's a terrible thing to lose It's a given thing What a terrible thing to lose.
