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 dawn

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)

Then slowly turn away from me

Maybe the sun's light will be dim

And it won't matter anyhow

If morning's echo says we've sinned

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, 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)

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, darling

Just call me angel of the morning, angel

Just touch my cheek before

you leave me, darling
