Lyrics for Leaving On A Jet Plane
By John Denver

Email icon Email these lyrics to a friend

All my bags are packed
I¡¯m ready to go
I¡¯m standin¡¯ here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin¡¯
It¡¯s early morn
The taxi¡¯s waitin¡¯
He¡¯s blowin¡¯ 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¡¯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

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
Ev¡¯ry place I go, I¡¯ll think of you
Ev¡¯ry song I sing, I¡¯ll 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
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

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
