(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 breakin' and 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   'Cause every place I go I'll think of you   Every song I'll sing I 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 time I won't have to say.      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...
