leaving on a jet plane
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go I'm standin' here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye  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  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 I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go  There are so many times, I've let you down So many times, I've played around I tell you now that they don't 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 weddin' 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 I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go  The time has come to leave you alone Let me kiss you so close your eyes And honey, 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  'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go  'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Leaving on a jet plane
