I Shall Be Released Lyrics

Artist: The Band
Album: Music From Big Pink

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

(CHORUS) 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 that every man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Now, yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long I hear him shouting so loud
Just crying out that he was framed

(REPEAT CHORUS)
