NINA SIMONE - I Shall Be Released lyrics

rate me

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
