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 morning
The taxis waiting
He´s blowing his horn
Already I´m so lonesome
I could die

looked at once more where she slept on their bed. He hated to leave here at home when they had to leave for a tour. He smiled, still not beliving that she was his, not after what had happend between them. The only thing he was sure about was that he would never let her go again. heard the taxidriver blowing his horn for the second time. He kissed on the forehead, took his bag and started to leave. As he walked out from their bedroom he stoped and looked back at her knowing that he would miss her like crazy.

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 babe, I hate to go

saw the others standing and waiting for him. They all had their partners and children with them. felt the pain inside of him, he felt lonely and he wished that had come to say goodbye to him at the airport. Seeing her smiling at him, kissing and hugging him goodbye.
“Are you okay ?” asked as walked up to them.
“I don´t know, I don´t want to think about it.” said and walked past and sat down on one of the chairs.
“We´ll not be away that long this time . You´ll soon be home with her again.” said knowing to well where ´s thoughts were.
“I know but I hate not being able to say goodbye properly. It´s like I forgot to tell her I love her.”
“She knows that .”
“I know she knows that but it still doesn´t feel right just leave her like that.” sighed and looked away.

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

woke up alone. She knew that she would because had to leave early. couldn´t help to feel a lump in her throat, he was away again. The last time he had been away a lot of things had happened. Things that had made end their relationship. had hurt her badly and it had taken months for her to gain her trust back. She loved him with all her heart, she had done that for a long time but she wasn´t sure about ´s feelings for her. Last tour he had cheated on her. She had found out by reading it in a news paper. She had confronted him and he had admited. shook her head, she didn´t want to think about that, that was a year ago and that was then not know. got up from bed and started to get ready for work.

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 babe, I hate to go

had just boarded the plane. He looked at his watch knowing that now was up and getting ready for work. He smiled to him self seeing the image of her running around in the big house looking for her keys, bag, hairbrush and everything else that she took from one place and put on an other as she walked through the house in the mornings and then when she needed it again she had lost it. The thought of this made him laugh quietly. heard laugh and looked over at him feeling sorry for him for being alone, for not being able to bring along.

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 wont have to leave alone
About the times, I wont have to say

The plane took off, closed his eyes thinking about , the way she had looked when he left her. Was it possible to love someone as much as he loved her? felt how his pulse rise when he felt all his emotions towards her filling up inside of him.

sat in her car, driving to work. Her thought was all over the place, what would happen during the tour? Would miss her? As she reached her parking place she parked her car and turned it off. She closed her eyes thinking about , how it felt when he kiss her, hug her, playing with strands of her hair. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes. She brought her things and walked into the building where she worked.

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
Don´t know when I´ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

But, I´m leaving on a jet plane
Don´t know when I´ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

”Call her.” said at .
“What?” woke up from his thoughts.
“I sort your bags out just go and call her. Tell her what you want to tell her.” said smiling tapping on his shoulder. smiled at and walked away.
“This is going to be hard.” said looking at the others.
“Tell me about it.” said shaking his head as he knew that would be down for some time.
“Can´t we convince her to come?” asked.
“Don´t think so. I know asked her but her boss wouldn´t let her take time off from work.” said.
“Too bad! I know that is scared because of what happened last time so I know for a fact that she´ll not be feeling well during the time we´re here.” said looking at her husband.
“I know but that won't happen again, learned his lesson.”
“I really hope he did. She won't take him back twice.” responded quietly.

jumped as her phone started to ring. She had been deep down in thoughts, thoughts of .
“ speaking.”
“I just wanted to say I love you.”
“! Love you too.” said smiling.
“I miss you already. We´ve landed and we´re just going to get our bags and then we´re off to the hotel.”
“You just left, how can you miss me already?”
“I do. Don´t you miss me?”
“Of course I do.” answered, she really did miss him, probably more than he knew. She had missed his morning kisses, his smile when she finnaly woke up, the feeling she felt inside looking at him next to her in bed. As had all those thoughts in her head she heard starting to sing:
“So kiss me and smile for me. Tell me that you´ll wait for me....”
“You know I will, I´ll be here when you get home. Love you.” whispered.
“Love you too. Call you tonight.” whispered back and ended the call with a smile on his lips. He knew she would be there waiting for him, longing for him just as much as he would long for her.

The End
