All my bags are packed, Im ready to go
Im standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say, Goodbye
But the dawn is breaking, its early morn
The taxis waiting, 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 leaving 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
And I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
Every place I go, Ill think of you
Every song I sing, Ill sing for you
When I come back, Ill bring 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 leaving 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
Close your eyes, Ill be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I wont have to leave alone
About the times 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 leaving on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
But Im leaving on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
