  5828>(John Denver)
 
 
  Oh, my bags are packed I'm ready to go
  I'm standing here outside your door
  I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
  But the dawn is breaking it's early morn
  The taxi's waitin' 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's so many times I've let me down
  So many times I've played around
  I tell you now that 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 come back I'll wear 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
  I'm leaving on a jet plane
  I 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 and 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.
 
 
  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...
