Lyrics

I Shall Be Released

[Verse 1]

They say everything can be replaced

Yeah, every distance is not near

So I remember every face

Of every man who put me here

[Chorus]

I see my light come shining

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 every man must fall

Yet I swear I see my reflection

Somе place so high above this wall

[Chorus]

I see my light come shining

From thе west down to the east

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released

[Verse 3]

Down here next to me in this lonely crowd

A man who swears he's not to blame

All day long I hear him cry so loud

Calling out that he, he was framed

[Chorus]

I see my light come shining

From the west down to the east

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released

Any day now, any day now

I shall be released
