[Intro]
(Any day now, any day now)
(I shall be released)

[Verse 1]
They say that everything can be replaced
They say that every distance is not near
But I can remember every face
Of a face of a people who put me here

[Chorus]
I see my light come shining
From the west on down to the east
But any day now (Any day now)
Any day now (Any day now)
Any day (Any day now) I shall be released (I shall be released)

[Verse 2]
They say that everybody needs protection (They say)
They also say that everybody got to fall
But oh, wait! I believe I can see my reflection
Somewhere so high above the wall

[Chorus]
I see my light come shining
From the west way down to the east
(From the west down to the east)
But any, any, any, any day now
Yeah (Any day now), any old, any day now (Any day now)
Hey (Any day now), I shall be released (I shall, I shall be released)
[Verse 3]
Understand somebody (Any day now, any day now)
Somebody in a lonely crowd (I shall, I shall be released)
That somebody who said to me (Any day now, any day now)
That they are not to blame (I shall, I shall be released)
All day long, all day long, I can hear that voice so loud
Crying out that he'd been framed

[Chorus]
I see, I see, I see, I see my light come shining
From the west way on down to the east
(From the west down to the east)
But any, any, any, any day now
Any, any day, oh yeah now (Any day now)
Hey, ooh (Any day now), I shall be released
(I shall, I shall be released)

[Outro]
(Any day now, any day now)
(I shall, I shall be released)
(Any day now, any day now)
