"Kiss me and smile for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
There’s so many times I’ve let you down
Now the time has come to leave you
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Oh babe I hate to go
When I come back I’ll bring your wedding ring
I tell you now, they don’t mean a thing
So kiss me and smile for me
"'Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
So kiss me and smile for me
The taxi’s waitin’, he’s blowin’ his horn
When I won’t have to leave alone
Every place I go, I’ll think of you
I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Oh, babe I hate to go
Hold me like you’ll never let me go"
Dream about the days to come
About the times I won’t have to say
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
One more time let me kiss you
'Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
'Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
So many times I’ve played around
But the dawn is breakin’, it’s early morn
Oh, babe I hate to go"
Already I’m so lonesome, I could die
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Every song I sing, I’ll sing for you
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Then close your eyes and I’ll be on my way
