They say everything can be replaced
Yet every distance is not near
So I remember every face
Of every 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 every man needs protection.
They every man must fall.
Yet I swear I see my reflection,
Somewhere so high above the wall.
I see my light come shining,
From the west unto the east.
Any day now,
Any day now,
I shall be released.
Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,
(Well onder stands a man in this lonely crowd,)
Is a man who swears he's not to blame.
(A man who swears he not to blame.)
All day long I hear him cry shouting loud,
Calling out that he's been framed.
I see my light come shining,
From the west unto the east.
Any day now,
Any day now,
I shall be released.
