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 good-bye.
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn, the taxi's waiting He's blowing 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 leaving 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 leaving 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:

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 leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.
I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.

I grew up listening to this kind of music 🎵🎶 and for me to be able to practice singing; I need to sing the songs of a Male. Female voice are so high. I regret that I didn't obey my mom's advise to join a Choire on a church. Now all I can do is to sing in the bathroom 😁. This is not my first time to join in hive open mic music event so maybe some of you already heard me singing. Some says that I have a good voice. I just need to practice. All we have to sing from our hearts. My chosen song; since then I understand it's deep meaning that man didn't want to leave his lover. But he has no choice, but when the right time come I know he'll never leave her lover again. It's like a perfect song for those lovers that meant in a long distance relationship.

Thank you so much for reading and listening
