| All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
|
| I’m standing here outside your door
|
| I hate to wake you up just to say good-bye
|
| But the dawn is breaking, it’s early morn
|
| The taxi’s waiting; |
| he’s blowing his horn
|
| Already I’m so lonesome I could cry
|
| Kiss me and smile for me
|
| Darling, tell me that you’ll wait for me
|
| Hold me like you’d never, never let me go
|
| 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, boy, they don’t mean a thing
|
| Every place I go I’ll think of you
|
| And every song I sing I’ll sing for you
|
| When I come back
|
| Please let me wear your wedding ring
|
| Kiss me and smile for me
|
| Baby, tell me that you’ll wait for me
|
| Hold me like you’d never, never let me go
|
| 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
|
| Just one more time, dear, let me kiss you
|
| And close your eyes, I’ll be on my way
|
| Dream about the days to come
|
| When I won’t have to leave alone
|
| Of the times when I won’t have to say |
