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
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 Explain Request ×
