Leaving on a jet plane
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 breaking
it's early morn´
the taxi's waiting
he's blowing his horn
allready i'm so lonesome
i could die
so kiss me and smile for me
tell me that you'll wait for me
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
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
but i tell you now
that they don't meen 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
'cause i'm leaving 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 of let me kiss you
close your eyes and i'll be on my way
dream about the days to come
when i won't have to leave alone
about the times when i won't 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
i don't know when i'll be back again
oh, babe, i hate to go.
