leaving on a jet plane

All my bags are packed

Im ready to go

Im standin here outside your door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breaking

Its early morn

The taxis waiting

Hes blowin his horn

Already Im so lonesome

I could die

So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that youll wait for me

Hold me like youll never let me go

Theres so many times I’ve let you down

So many times I’ve played around

I tell you now, they dont mean a thing

Every place I go, I’ll think of you

Every song I sing, I’ll sing for you

When I come back, I’ll bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you’ll wait for me

Hold me like you’ll never let me go

Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane

Don;t know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you

One more time

Let me kiss you

Then close your eyes

Ill be on my way

Dream about the days to come

When I wont have to leave alone

About the times, I wont have to say

Oh, kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you’ll wait for me

Hold me like you’ll never let me go

Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane

Don’t know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go

But, I’m leaving on a jet plane

Don’t know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go
