there's no need to take the 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

through the tears

of the day,

of the years, 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
