Lyrics John Denver

John Denver

Leaving On A Jet Plane

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go,

I am standing here outside the door,

I hate to wake you up to say good-bye.

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 die.

So kiss me and smile for me,

Tell me that you'll wait for me,

Hold me like you 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 you 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'll go I'll think of you

Every song I'll sing I'll sing for you

When I'll come back I'll bring you wedding ring.

So kiss me...

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 don't have to say.

So kiss me...
