Angel Of The Morning
Rita Wilson Lyrics

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
I won't hold you back or try to control you

Not if my love can't bind your heart.
If you don't feel the same way about me, my love won't stop you

And there's no need to take a stand
You don't have to make a decision or choose sides

For it was I who chose to start.
I initiated this relationship, so I will take responsibility for it

I see no need to take me home,
I can find my own way back

I'm old enough to face the dawn.
I am mature enough to handle any consequences or hardships that may come

Just call me angel of the morning angel
Address me as a symbol of hope and purity

Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
Show some tenderness and affection one last time

Maybe the sun's light will be dim
The future is uncertain and may not be bright

And it won't matter anyhow.
Our love is strong enough to overcome any obstacles

If morning's echo says we've sinned,
If society disapproves of our relationship,

Well, it was what I wanted now.
I made a choice to be with you, regardless of the consequences

And if we're the victims of the night,
If we suffer because of our actions under the cover of darkness,

I won't be blinded by light.
I won't be ashamed or regretful for what we shared

Then slowly turn away from me.
Disappear from my life gradually and gently

I won't beg you to stay with me
I won't be desperate or clingy for your affection

Through the tears of the day,
Despite any emotional pain or hardship we may face

Of the years, baby baby baby.
Over the passage of time, my love will remain
