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 good-bye.
|
But the dawn is breakin',
|
It's early morn,
|
The taxi's waitin'
|
He's blowin' his horn,
|
Already I'm so lonesome I could die.
|
|
(chorus)
|
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 leavin' on a jet plane,
|
Don't know when I'll be back again,
|
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
|
|
So many times I've let you down
|
There's so many times I've fucked around,
|
I tell you now they don't mean a thing.
|
Ev'ry place I go I'll think of you,
|
Ev'ry song I sing I'll sing for you,
|
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring.
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
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 that I won't have to say:
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
I'm leavin' on a jet plane,
|
Don't know when I'll be back again,
|
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
|
(repeat many many times)
