There'll be no strings to bind your hands Not if my love can't bind your heart And there's no need to take a stand For it was I who chose to start I see no need to take me home I'm old enough to face the dark Just call me angel of the morning, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby Just call me angel of the morning angel, angel Then slowly turn away I won't beg you to stay with me Maybe the sun's light will be dim And it won't matter anyhow If morning's echo says we've sinned Well it was what I wanted now And we were victims of the night I won't be blinded by the light Just call me angel of the morning angel, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby Just call me angel of the morning, angel Then slowly turn away I won't beg you to stay with me Through the tears of the day, Of the years, baby, baby, baby. Just call me angel of the morning angel, angel Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
