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 shining
From the west unto 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
Some where 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.

Now yonder standing a man in this lonely crowd,
A man who swears he's not to blame.
All day long I hear him shout so loud,
Just crying 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.
