I Shall Be Released

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They say everything can be replaced They say every distance is not near So I remember every face On every man who put me here [Chorus] Well, I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now Any day now I shall be released [Verse 2] They say every man needs protection They say that every man must fall Still, I swear I see my reflection Somewhere so high up on this wall [Chorus] Well, I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now Any day now I shall be released [Verse 3] Now yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd A man who swears he's not to blame Well, all day long I hear him shoutin' so loud Just cryin' out that he was framed [Chorus] Well, I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now Any day now I shall be released
