Lyrics Leaving on a Jet Plane - Frank Solivan, John Cowan

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 through morn
My taxi is waiting he’s blowing his horn
Already I’m a quarter mile down
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you will 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’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
And when I come back
I bring 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
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
Let me kiss you then close your eyes
I’ll be on my way dream about days to come
When I don’t have to live alone
Thinking about times when I don’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
I’m leaving on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Leaving on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go
