Lyric Leaving On A Jet Plane

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
But the dawn is breaking, it s early morn.
The taxi s waiting, he s blowing his horn,
Already I m so lonesome I could cry.

[Chorus]
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 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 wear your wedding ring.

[Chorus]

Now the time has come to leave you,
One more time let me kiss you,
Then 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 ...

[Chorus]
