Sailin' away
on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Oh, rollin' and riding
and slipping and sliding
It's magic
And you, and your sweet desire,
You took me, ooh, oh,
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 taking a dive
Dive, dive, dive,
. .
Making believe this is
what you've conceived
From your worst day,
I'm taking a dive
Moving in line then
you look back in time
To the first day
I'm taking, I'm taking
And you..
and your sweet desire
You took me
Oh,
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
And I'm taking a dive
on the slide
hey
..
Takin' a dive 'cause you
can't halt the slide
Floating downstream,
(I'm taking a dive)
So let her go don't
start spoiling the show
It's a bad dream
(I'm taking, I'm taking)
And you..
and your sweet desire
You took me..
Oh,
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
It's a living thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing....
What a terrible thing to lose
..
