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



There is no need to take me home

I'm old enough to face the dawn

Just call me angel of the morning

Just touch my cheek before you leave me baby



Just call me angel of the morning

Slowly slowly turn away from me

Well maybe the sun's light will be dim

but it won't matter anyhow



If morning echo says we've sinned

Well, it was what I wanted now.

And if we're the victims of the night

I promise you I won't be blinded by light



Just call me angel

Touch my cheek before you leave me baby.

Just call me angel of the morning morning

Just touch my cheek before you leave me baby



Just call me angel of the morning (baby

Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby)

Just call me angel of the morning

Slowly slowly turn away from me from me

From me
