Oh, my bag is packed
And ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
And hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breaking
It's early morning
Taxi's waiting
He's blowing his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
I'm leaving on a jet plane
I 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
They don't mean a thing
Every place I go
I sing for you
When I come back
I'll wear your wedding ring
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 time I won't have to say
And ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
And hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breaking
It's early morning
Taxi's waiting
He's blowing his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
I'm leaving on a jet plane
I 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
They don't mean a thing
Every place I go
I sing for you
When I come back
I'll wear your wedding ring
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 time I won't have to say
