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 mornin'
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowing 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-a 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 time
I won't have to say
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
Leavin'
on a jet plane
I don't know when
I'll be back again
Leavin'
on a jet plane
I don't know when
I'll be back again
Oh babe
I hate
to go
