Livin Thing Lyrics

Artist: Electric Light Orchestra

Sailin' away on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'
It's magic

CHORUS
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

CHORUS -- repeat

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

CHORUS -- repeat

Comments/Interpretations
by Nick on 12/27/2011 6:33am I'm led to believe that this song is anti-abortion, the "livin' thing" referred to is a foetus/unborn baby. "Taking a dive" means "getting an abortion". You don't have to agree with their message to love the song!
