Lyrics

[00:21.22] They say everything can be replaced
[00:28.53] Yet every distance is not near
[00:37.22] So I remember every face
[00:45.53] Of every man who put me here
[00:53.22] I see the light come shining
[01:02.03] From the west unto the east
[01:11.09] Any day now any day now
[01:19.35] I shall be released
[01:31.72] They say every man needs protection
[01:38.15] They say every man must fall
[01:45.84] Yet I swear I see my reflection
[01:54.28] Some place too high above this wall
[02:00.84] see the light come shining From the west unto the east Any day now any day now I shall be released
[02:37.23] Now yonder standing me in this lonely crowd
[02:46.67] A man who swears hes not to blame
[02:54.24] All day long I hear his voice shouting so loud
[03:01.92] Crying out that he was framed
[03:08.74] I see the light come shining
[03:15.67] From the west unto the east
[03:25.80] Any day now any day now
[03:33.92] I shall be released
