[Verse 1]
There'll be no strings to bind your hand
Darling, my love can find your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
[Pre-Chorus]
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn
[Chorus]
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
[Verse 2]
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
And it won't matter anyhow
If morning echoes say that we sinned
Well, it was what I wanted now
[Pre-Chorus]
And if we're victims of the night
I won't be blinded by the light (Hey, baby)
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
And it won't matter anyhow (Uh-huh)
If morning echoes say that we sinned
Well, it was, well, it was what I wanted now
[Pre-Chorus]
And if we're victims of the night
I won't be blinded by the light (Well, let me tell you, baby)
[Outro]
And just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, hey, hey
