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