All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go I'm standing here, outside the door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breaking, it's early morning The taxi's waiting, he's blown 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 Cause 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, they don't mean a thing Every place I go, I think of you Every song I sing, I sing for you When I come back, I'll wear 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 Cause 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 One more time, 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 When I won't have to leave alone Without the times I won't have to say 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 Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go
