Jet Plane Lyrics by Sonya Spence

In The Dark

1978

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up just 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 cry
Kiss me and smile for me
Darling, tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'd never, never let me go
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, boy, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go I'll think of you
And every song I sing I'll sing for you
When I come back
Please let me wear your wedding ring
Kiss me and smile for me
Baby, tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'd never, never let me go
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
Just one more time, dear, let me kiss you
And close your eyes, I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
Of the times when I won't have to say
