The Beautiful South - Livin' thing - new version lyrics

Sailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and sliding It's magic And you, and your sweet desire You took me, oh, woah, 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 We're 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 taken, I'm taken And you and your sweet desire You took me, oh, woah, 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 Takin' a dive 'cause you can't halt the slide Floating downstream, I'm takin' a dive Oh, so let her go don't start spoiling the show It's a bad dream, I'm taken, I'm taken And you and your sweet desire You took me, oh, woah, 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 terrible thing to lose What a terrible thing to lose
