[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
I see the light come shinin'
From the west down to the east (Yes)
Any day now, anywhere now
I shall be released (Yes)

[Verse 2]
They say every man needs protection
They say every man must fall
Yet say that see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall

[Chorus]
I see the 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
And all day long O hear him shouting so loud
Just crying out that he was framed
[Chorus]
I see the light come shinin'
From the west down to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
