Just call me angel of the morning angel
For it was I who chose to start
Just call me angel of the morning angel
Just call me angel of the morning angel
Just call me angel of the morning angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Then slowly turn away from me
I see no need to take me home
If morning's echoes say we've sinned
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Then slowly turn away, I won't beg you to stay with me
There's no need to take a stand
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
And it won't matter anyhow
And if we're victims of the night
Through the tears of the day, of the years, baby
Well, it was what I wanted now
Just call me angel of the morning angel
Just call me angel of the morning angel
I'm old enough to face the dawn
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, darling
I won't be blinded by the light
Just call me angel of the morning angel
