'Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Already Im so lonesome, I could die
One more time let me kiss you
So kiss me and smile for me
'Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
But the dawn is breakin, its early morn
Hold me like youll never let me go
Every place I go, Ill think of you
When I wont have to leave alone
Hold me like youll never let me go"
Oh babe I hate to go
When I come back Ill bring your wedding ring
Theres so many times Ive let you down
Tell me that youll wait for me
Oh, babe I hate to go
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
Dream about the days to come
Hold me like youll never let me go
About the times I wont have to say
Tell me that youll wait for me
Oh, babe I hate to go"
Dont know when Ill be back again
Dont know when Ill be back again
Then close your eyes and Ill be on my way
Now the time has come to leave you
"'Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Tell me that youll wait for me
Dont know when Ill be back again
"Kiss me and smile for me
Every song I sing, Ill sing for you
I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
So kiss me and smile for me
Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
The taxis waitin, hes blowin his horn
So many times Ive played around
