All my bags are packed I'm ready to go Standin' here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye 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 cry 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 leavin' 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 didn't mean a thing 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 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 leavin' on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Leavin' on a jetplane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe I hate to go
