The Beautiful South - Livin' ThingLyrics

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 conceived From your worst day Moving in line then 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
