The Band - I Shall Be Released lyrics

They say everything can be replaced They say every distance is not near So I remember every face Of every man who put me here I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released They say every man needs protection They say that every man must fall Yet I swear I see my reflection Somewhere so high above this wall I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released Now, yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd A man who swears he's not to blame All day long, I hear him shouting so loud Just crying out that he was framed I see my light come shinin' From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released
