Livin' Thing Composer(s): Jeff Lynne First release by: Electric Light Orchestra - 1976 Covered by multiple other artists
Sailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & 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 '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 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
