I Shall Be Released Songtext
They say ev'rything can be replaced,
yet ev'ry distance is not near.
So I remember ev'ry face
of ev'ry man who put me here.

I see my light come shining
from the West unto the East;
any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.
They say ev'ry man needs protection,
they say ev'ry man must fall.
Yet I swear I see my reflection
some place so high above this wall.

I see my light come shining
from the West unto the East;
any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.

Standin' next to me in this lonely crowd
is a man who swears he's not to blame.
All day long I hear his voice shoutin' so loud,
cryin' out that he was framed.

I see my light come shining
from the West unto the East;
any day now, any day now,
I shall be released.
