听歌学英语:《中国合伙人》插曲 Leaving On A Jet Plane

Leaving on a jet¹ plane and I hate to go. 乘飞机离别，我不想离开。这是歌词所传达的内容。而我很快就要乘高铁到另外一个城市，今后也许会越来越忙，但是我一直都在，如果不是非离开不可，不会轻易say goodbye。因为深爱，所以坚持。

All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
I’m standing² here out side your door
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye
But the dawn is breaking it’s early morning
The taxi’s waiting he’s blowing his horn³
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
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, baby, 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, 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 leaving on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, baby, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time lei 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
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
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, baby, I hate to go
I’m leaving on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, baby, I hate to go
