Verse 1
All my bags are packed
Ready to go
I’m 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’s waitin’
He’s blowin’ his horn
Already I’m so lonesome
I could die
—
Chorus
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
—
Verse 2
There’s so many times I’ve let you down
So many times I’ve played around
And I tell you now, they don’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 your wedding ring
—
Chorus
