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 choose to
start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the
dawn
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek
before you leave me
Oh my baby
Just call me angel of the morning,
angel
Then slowly turn away from me
Maybe the sunlight will be
dim
But it won't matter anyhow
If morning's echoes say we've
sinned
Then it was what I wanted now
And if we're victims of the
night
I won't be blinded by the light
Oh my baby
Just call me angel
of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just
call me angel of the morning
Then slowly turn away from me
Baby baby
baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek
before you leave me
Oh my baby
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
Just touch my cheek before you leave me
Oh my
baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
