LEAVING ON A JET PLANE

John Denver

I’m….I’m….

All my bags are packed
Im ready to go
Im standin’ here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin’
Its early morn’
The taxi’s waitin’
He’s blowin’ his horn
Already Im 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 leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

I’m….
There’s so many times I’ve let you down
So many times I’ve played around
but I tell you now, they don’t mean a thing
Every place I go, I think of you
Every song I sing, I sing for you
When I come back, I’ll bring your wedding 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 leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
And close your eyes and
I’ll be on my way 
Dream about the days to come
When I won’t have to leave alone
About the times, That I won’t have to say

Oh, 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 leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

But, I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

And I'm Leaving on a jet plane
Leaving on a jet plane
