Early in the Morning (Robert Hilyer)

Leaving on a Jet Plane

Peter, Paul and Mary

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 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'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

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,

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,

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

I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh baby, I hate to go
