Lyrics Angel of the Morning - The Pretenders

Angel of the Morning

There’ll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can 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 any 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 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 day
Of the years, oh baby baby, 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, darlin'
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, darlin'
What if there’s only one woman for everybody, you know?
I mean what if you get
one woman, and that’s it?
Unfortunately in my case, there is only one woman —
for her
What are you talking about?!
One woman?
That’s like saying there’s only one
flavor of ice cream for you.
Let me tell you something Ross, there’s lots of
flavors out there — there’s rocky road — and cookie dough, and bing!
cherry vanilla!
You can get them with jimmies, or nuts, or whipped cream.
This is the best thing that ever happened to you!
You got married,
you were like what, eight?
Welcome back to the world, grab a spoon!
I honestly don’t know if I’m hungry or horny
Stay out of my freezer
Grab a spoon… do you know how long it’s been since I grabbed a spoon?
Do the words «Billy don’t be a hero» mean anything to you?
You know, here’s the thing — even if I could get it together to ask a woman out,
who am I gonna ask?
