Being on the road, being away from home, away from the people that you love
It's not always an easy thing
It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
To be so in love with you, so alone
Follow me where I go, what I do, what I know
Make a part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way, all around
Take my hand and say you follow me
It's long been on my mind you know it's been a long long time
I've tried to find a way that I can make you understand
The way I feel about you in just how much I need you
To be there where I can talk to you when there's no one else around
Follow me where I go, what I do, what I know
Make a part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way, all around
Take my hand and say you follow me
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 die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you wait for me
Hold me like you never let me go
Cuz 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's 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 wait for me
Hold me like you never let me go
Cuz 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
