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 leaving on a jet plane.
i 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'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing.
every place i go, i think of you.
every song i sing, i 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.
cause 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, oh, let me kiss you.
and close your eyes, and i'll be on my way.
dream about the days to come,
when i won't have to leave alone,
about the times that 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 leaving on a jet plane.
i don't know when i'll be back again.
oh babe, i hate to go.
and i'm leaving on a jet plane,
i don't know when i'll be back again.
oh babe, i hate to go.
but i'm leaving on a jet plane.
leaving on a jet plane.this is when i feel like smacking a lyricist, for so succinctly and aptly describing the woes of leaving familiarity, love, a sense of belonging and comfort.
BUT squish, vidhi, diana, may ling, kevin and llewellyn make it A LOT BETTER. they are the reasons why i am SLIGHLY looking forward to leaving this sunny island to dwell under the dreary london skies. it was a great time spent with them at cineleisure's hong kong cafe. law students can REALLY talk. a brief count tells me that we chatted for FIVE HOURS NON-STOP.
ambivalence is really the most prominent emotion i own currently. a little bit of everything is scattered all around me like autumn leaves on a long stretch of walk way in a garden. all that myriad of colours, all that mess, all that uncertainty of what's at the end of the road. i need a rake, pronto.
SELF-EXPLANATORY! LOADIES OF SMOOOCHES TO CASSY AND CHRISTABELLY! <33 and yes, that's an awfully silly picture of me.
