Bread & Butter 奶油麵包 / Leaving On a Jet Plane 乘著噴射機離去

六月, 開始濃烈離別氣息的夏天,
選一首歌送給要遠行、要畢業、要重新開始的自己
微酸微甜微輕快微傷感
可以含著眼淚帶著微笑放輕鬆面對
我會記得這一切……
在夏天開始的
所有離別


BREAD & BUTTER：Leaving On a Jet Plane

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 breakin’, It’s early morning
Taxi’s waiting. He’s blowin’ 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 leavin’ 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, 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 bring your wedding ring

*repeat

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 time, 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
I’m leavin’ on a jet planeDon’t know when I’ll be back again
Leavin’ on a jet planeDon’t know when I’ll be back again
Leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back againOh, babe, I hate to go
