Leaving On A Jet Plane

Mama Cass Elliot

Compositor: John Denver

All 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 waiting he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
(So kiss me and smile for me)
Tell me that you'll wait for me
(Tell me that you'll wait for me)
Hold me like you'll never let me go
(Hold me like you'll never let me go)
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
('cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane)
Don't know when I'll be back again
(Don't know when I'll be back again)
Oh babe I hate to go
(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
Everyplace I go I'll think of you
Every song I sing I'll sing for you
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
(So kiss me and smile for me)
Tell me that you'll wait for me
(Tell me that you'll wait for me)
Hold me like you'll never let me go
(Hold me like you'll never let me go)
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
('cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane)
Don't know when I'll be back again
(Don't know when I'll be back again)
Oh babe I hate to go
(Oh babe I hate to go)

Noe 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 you alone
About the times I won't have to say Goodbye, everybody¡

So kiss me and smile for me
(So kiss me and smile for me)
Tell me that you'll wait for me
(Tell me that you'll wait for me)
Hold me like you'll never let me go
(Hold me like you'll never let me go)
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
('cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane)
Don't know when I'll be back again
(Don't know when I'll be back again)
Oh babe I hate to go
(Oh babe I hate to go)
