Lyrics of
Angel Of The Morning

Angel of the Morning, penned by Chip Taylor and made famous by several artists including Merrilee Rush and Juice Newton, addresses the theme of free and uncommitted love. Originally released in 1967, its lyrics talk about an intimate encounter between two lovers that brings no regrets, even if it ends with a goodbye in the morning.

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,
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 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 2x
Through the tears
or the days
or the years
Ba a a by
Just call me angel of the morning Angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, darlin.
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, dararlan
