| 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 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.
|
| 'Cos I’m leavin' 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.
|
| Ev’ry place I go, I think of you;
|
| Ev’ry song I sing, I sing for you;
|
| When I come back, I’ll 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.
|
| 'Cos I’m leavin' 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,
|
| 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 times I won’t have to say:
|
| Oh, kiss me and smile for me,
|
| Tell be that you’ll wait for me.
|
| And hold me like you’ll never let me go.
|
| 'Cos I’m leavin' on a jet plane,
|
| Don’t know when I’ll be back again.
|
| Oh, babe, I hate to go.
|
| I’m leavin' on a jet plane,
|
| Don’t know when I’ll be back again.
|
| Oh, babe, I hate to go. |
