All my bags are packed I'm 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 | |
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 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 | |
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 | |
Now the time has come to leave you | |
One more time let me kiss you | |
Close your eyes I'll be on my way | |
Dream about the days to come | |
When I won't have to leave alone | |
About 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 leavin' on a jet plane | |
Don't know when I'll be back again | |
Oh babe, I hate to go | |
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane | |
Don't know when I'll be back again | |
Oh babe, I hate to go | |
... | |
It's five o'clock this mornin' and the sun is on the rise | |
There's frosting on the window pane and sorrow in your eyes | |
The stars are fading quietly; the night is nearly gone | |
And so you turn away from me and tears begin to come | |
CHORUS | |
And it's goodbye again | |
I'm sorry to be leaving you | |
Goodbye again | |
Cause if you didn't know | |
It's goodbye again | |
And I wish you could tell me | |
Why do we always fight when I have to go | |
It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm | |
I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms | |
I long to kiss the tears away and give you back your smile | |
But other voices beckon me and for a little while | |
CHORUS | |
BRIDGE | |
Have to go and see some friends of mine, some that I don't know | |
And some who aren't familiar with my name | |
It's something that's inside of me; not hard to understand | |
It's just anyone who'll listen to me sing | |
if your hours are empty now, who am i too blame | |
You think if I were always here our love would be the same | |
As it is the time we have is worth the time alone | |
And lying by your side the greatest peace I've ever known | |
