Skeeter Davis - Angel of 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 reason 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 the 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 days,

Of the years, baby, 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, baby.
