All my bags are packed

Im ready to go

Im standin here outside your door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin

Its early morn

The taxis waitin

Hes blowin his horn

Already Im so lonesome

I could die



So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that youll wait for me

Hold me like youll never let me go

Cause Im leavin on a jet plane

Dont know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go



Theres so many times Ive let you down

So many times Ive played around

but I tell you now, they dont mean a thing

Every place I go, I think of you

Every song I sing, I sing for you

When I come back, Ill wear your wedding ring



So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that youll wait for me

Hold me like youll never let me go

Cause Im leavin on a jet plane

Dont know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go



Now the time has come to leave you

One more time

Let me kiss you

And close your eyes and

my wayIll be on 

Dream about the days to come

When I wont have to leave alone

About the times, That I wont have to say



Oh, kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that youll wait for me

Hold me like youll never let me go

Cause Im leavin on a jet plane

Dont know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go



But, Im leavin on a jet plane

Dont know when Ill be back again

Oh babe, I hate to go
