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 --- Lyrics transcription by Roger Nupie Original lyrics 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 just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby. Just call me angel of the morning 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, well, it was what I wanted now. And if we're the victims of the night, I won't be blinded by light. Just call me angel of the morning just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby. Just call me angel of the morning 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 just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby. |
