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 breakning, it's early morn The taxi's waiting, he's blowing 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 'Cos 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 And I tell you now, 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 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 'Cos 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, oh, let me kiss you And 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 that 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 'Cos I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh Babe, I hate to go
I'm leaving on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh Babe, I hate to go
'Cos I'm leaving on a jet plane Leaving on a jet plane Leaving on a jet plane Leaving on a jet plane Leaving on a jet plane Leaving on a jet plane (repeat to fade)
