(John Denver) Oh, my bag is packed and ready to go I'm standing here outside your door And hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breaking, it's early morning Taxi's waiting, 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 are 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 sing for you When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring Now the time has come to leave you One more time, let me kiss you And 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
