All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
|
I'm standing here outside your door
|
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
|
But the dawn is breakin', it's esrly morn
|
The taxi's waiting, hi's blowin' his horn
|
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry.
|
|
So kiss me and smile for me
|
Tell me that you'll wait for me
|
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
|
I'm leavin' on a jet plane
|
I don't know when I'll be back again
|
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
|
|
There's so many times I've let you down
|
So many times I've played around
|
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
|
Every place I go, I think of you
|
Every song I sing, I sing for you
|
When I come back, I'll wear 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.
|
I'm leavin' on a jet plane
|
I don't know when I'll 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, I'll be on my way.
|
Dream about the days to come
|
When I won't have to leave alone
|
About the times, I won't have to say,
|
|
So kiss me and smile for me
|
Tell me that you'll wait for me
|
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
|
I'm leavin' on a jet plane
|
I don't know when I'll be back again
|
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
