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 reason to take me home   I am old enough to face the dawn      Just call me angel of the morning, angel   Just touch my cheek before you leave me, oh, baby   Just call me angel of the morning, angel   Then slowly turn away from me      Maybe the sun's light will be dim   So it won't matter anyhow   If morning's echo says we've sinned   Well, it was what I wanted now      And if we're victims of the night   I won't be blinded by the light      Just call me angel of the morning, angel   Just touch my cheek before you leave me, oh, 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 pain   Of the years, oh, baby, baby, baby, 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, baby, baby   Oh, baby
