They say everything can be replaced
Yet every distance is not near
So I remember every face
Of every man that put me here
I see my light come shinin'
From the west unto 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
But I swear I see my reflection
Somewhere so high above this wall
I see my light come shinin'
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
Standing next to me in this lonely crowd
Is a man who swears he’s not to blame
Every night, I hear him shout so loud
Crying out that he’s been framed
I see my light come shinin'
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
I see my light come shinin'
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

Had the 45rpm back in the day. Something about the lyrics kept me playing it over & over, without really knowing the meaning. It took years before I totally understood & felt the meaning. And listening to it now brings tears to my eyes in a humble way. Bless you Bob Dylan for the lyrics, & bless the Box Tops for their version.
