Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
Standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn'
The taxi is waitin' and he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I let you now they didn't mean a thing
[Verse 5]
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back I'll bring you a wedding ring
[Verse 6]
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Because I'm leaving on a jet plane
I 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
