Lyrics:

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
Then 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

Oh, 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

Fabulous rendition of this classic John Denver song. Personally, I actually prefer your version to Peter Paul and Mary's hit of the late 60s. Beautifully arranged instrumentation, understated even. Fabulous cover guys, well done and I don't have a huge following, but for what it's worth I have resteemed!

Yep, just what @steelygeoff said... couldn't have put it any other way!

Thank you both, very much.

I totally meant what I said. The only slight issue I have is that you have "originalmusic" amongst the tags. It obviously isn't and IMHO it might be construed as misleading to tag it as such.

You're right, we will take care of it.

Excellent work guys, love this song and couldn't wait for the harmony vocal to kick in, knew it would be good.

Thank you :)

One of my favorite classics. You both continue to produce excellent quality performances. Such talent! Keep them coming.
