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, An - gel,
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, ba - by.
Just call me angel of the morning, An - gel,
Then slowly turn away from me.
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
And it won't matter an - y - how.
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.
