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
