I Shall Be Released Lyrics

Artist: Nina Simone (Buy Nina Simone CDs)
Album: To Love Somebody

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 down to the east
Any day now any day now
I shall be released

They say every man needs protection
They say every man must fall
so I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere inside these walls

I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Any day now any day now
I shall be released

yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd
man who swears he's not to blame
ALl day long I hear him hollering so loud
just crying out that he's not to blame

I see my light come shining
From the west down to the east
Any day now any day now
I shall be relased
