Bette Midler — You Cant Always Get What You Want/I Shall Be Released

I saw her today at the reception She had a glass of wine in her hand She said, "Well, now I have to go meet my connection." At her feet was a footloose man I heard her say "You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes, you just may find Surely you will find you get what you need Oh, don't you find that you will get what you need?" They say everything can be replaced That every distance is not near So I remember every face Of every man who put me here They say every woman needs protection Then they turn around and tell you Every woman's got to fall I swear I see my own reflection Somewhere far beyond this wall I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released Now yonder stands There in that lonely crowd A man who swears he is not to blame, no, no And if you ask him has he ever seen this lonely woman He'll tell you, "No, no, no." What's more, he does not know my name! But I see my light come shining Shining, shining, shining from the west Straight on down to the east Ah-anyday now, any, any old day now I am going to, I am going to be released, yeah! They tell ya, tell ya every woman They tell ya every woman Got to have protection Then they turn around and tell ya "No! We gotta make that-a woman fall!" Oh, god, I swear! I swear I see I see my, my very own reflection Far and away beyond, way, way beyond These old walls! That's right! I see, I see my light, my light My light is shining, shining, shining Shining, shining, shining, shining From the west straight on down to the east And any day now, do you hear me? Any day now, I shall be I am going to be released! Any day now, any day now, any day now Any, any day now, oh, any day now Any day, any day, any day Any day, any day, any day Woah, any day, any day, any old day now Yeah, any day now I am going to, I shall be released! Woah, any day now, I shall see again! Any day now, I shall be free again! Any day now, they'll let me be again! Oh, any day now, any day now, any day now Whoa, help me, any day, any day Any old day now
