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 baby
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
Don't you do it Don't you do it
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
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 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 given thing
