Leaving On A Jet Plane/Goodbye Again (Medley)
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
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every 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
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
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
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
...
It's five o'clock this mornin' and the sun is on the rise
There's frosting on the window pane and sorrow in your eyes
The stars are fading quietly; the night is nearly gone
And so you turn away from me and tears begin to come
CHORUS
And it's goodbye again
I'm sorry to be leaving you
Goodbye again
Cause if you didn't know
It's goodbye again
And I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go
It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm
I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms
I long to kiss the tears away and give you back your smile
But other voices beckon me and for a little while
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Have to go and see some friends of mine, some that I don't know
And some who aren't familiar with my name
It's something that's inside of me; not hard to understand
It's just anyone who'll listen to me sing
if your hours are empty now, who am i too blame
You think if I were always here our love would be the same
As it is the time we have is worth the time alone
And lying by your side the greatest peace I've ever known
CHORUS
