Lyrics

(Dylan)
They say every thing must be replaced
They say every distance is not near
Yet 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 way 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
Somewhere so high above this wall

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

Standin next to me in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him shoutin so loud
Cryin' out that he was framed

Chorus

Any day now, any way now
I shall be released
