Angel of the Morning
Embrace the Dawn: Unveiling the Soulful Tapestry of 'Angel of the Morning'
Lyrics
There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Freedom from commitments or obligations.
Not if my love can't bind your heart
Love alone should not be a restricting force.
And there's no need to take a stand
No need to take a defensive position.
For it was I who chose to start
The speaker initiated the situation.
I see no need to take me home
Don't feel obligated to take the speaker home.
I'm old enough to face the dawn
The speaker is mature enough to face the consequences.
Just call me angel of the morning, (angel)
Identifying as the "angel of the morning."
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
A request for a tender moment before parting.
Just call me angel of the morning, (angel)
Reiteration of being the "angel of the morning."
Then slowly turn away
A gentle departure after the intimate moment.
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
Speculation about the dimming of the sun's light.
And it won't matter anyhow
Regardless of circumstances, it won't matter.
If morning's echo says we've sinned
Consequences may not matter if morning condemns.
Well, it was what I wanted now
The consequences align with the speaker's desires.
And if we're victims of the night
Not blinded by the truth if they are victims.
I won't be blinded by the light
Refusing to be blinded by the truth.
Just call me angel of the morning, (angel)
Reaffirmation as the "angel of the morning."
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Request for a touch before the emotional separation.
Just call me angel of the morning, (angel)
Reiteration of being the "angel of the morning."
Then slowly turn away
A slow and deliberate turning away.
I won't beg you to stay with me
No desperation to beg for the other person to stay.
Through the tears of the day, of the years
Enduring tears over time.
Baby, baby, baby
Repetition of "baby" for emphasis or emotional expression.
Just call me angel of the morning, (angel)
Final affirmation as the "angel of the morning."
