Leaving On A Jet Plane Lyrics - Bobby Bare

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 leaving on a jet plane 

Don't know when I'll be back again 

Oh babe, I hate to go 

There are so many times, I've let you down 

So many times, I've played around 

I tell you now that 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 weddin' 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 leaving on a jet plane 

Don't know when I'll be back again 

Oh babe, I hate to go 

The time has come to leave you alone 

Let me kiss you so close your eyes 

And honey, 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 leaving on a jet plane 

Don't know when I'll be back again 

Oh babe, I hate to go 

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane 

Don't know when I'll be back again 

Leaving on a jet plane
