Lyrics

By Some Miracle

One, two, three, four

As I gave into temptation
I've strayed across the line
Keep it under wraps in the cold store
Put it to the back of your mind
Put it to the back of your mind

But, by some miracle
I just got away with it
I've clawed it back again
By some miracle
I just got away with it
I've clawed it back

I'm crawling back again

There's a black dog down in the basement
It's barking at my name
Snapping at my heels when I falter
Kick it but it won't go away
Kick it but it won; t go away

But, by some miracle
I just got away with it
I've clawed it back again
But, by some miracle
I just got away with it
I've clawed it back

I'm crawling back again

Put it back, put it back, put it where you found it
Put it back, put it back, put it where you found it
Put it back, put it back, put it where you found it
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
