All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go; I'm standing here
outside your door, I'd hate wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breaking this early morn; my taxi's waiting,
he's blowing his horn; already I'm so lonesome I could die
-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.......coz I'm leaving on a jet
plane, I dont 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 but tell him that they don't mean a thing

Every place I go I think of you, every song I sing I sing for
you; when I comeback I'll wear your wedding ring
-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.......coz I'm leaving on a jet
plane, I dont know when I'll be back again; Oh babe, I hate to
go
-musical interlude-

Now the time has come to leave you; One more time oh let me
kiss you, and close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come when I wont have to leave
alone, by the times that I wont have to say.........
-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.......coz I'm leaving on a jet
plane, I dont know when I'll be back again; Oh babe, I hate to
go
-CHORUS-
coz I'm leaving on a jet plane
leaving on a jet plane(7x)
