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 |
