Indigo Girls Lyrics

I Shall Be Released Lyrics

Michelle ---> 1
They say everything can be replaced
Yet every distance is not near
So, I remember every face
Of everyone who put me here.

Everyone ---> Chorus
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Anyday now, any day now,
I shall be released.

Emily ---> 2
They say everyone needs protection,
They say everyone must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Some place so high above this wall

Everyone ---> Chorus
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Anyday now, any day now
I shall be released.
Solos / jams

Amy ---> 3
Standing next to me in this lonely crowd,
Is someone who swears he's not to blame.
All day long I hear him shout so loud
Crying out that he's been framed.

Everyone ---> Chorus
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Anyday now, anyday now
I shall be released
