Being a complete music freak I enjoy every genre of music right from trance to hard metal rock, every song describes a human emotion in the most subtle and perfect way. I think that songs form a major stress buster for most people in this mad hectic world. For me music is no longer a part of life but it is a way of life... Be it in the Bus early morning or at work I need my daily dose of music.
One song in particular that I have been listening to quite often recently is "Leaving on a Jet Plane" by John Denver. Somehow this song represents my state of mind completely at this point of time and the guitar is simply brilliant. John Denver has written some beautiful songs and according to me is one of the best lyricists ever. Every song of his captures the situation perfectly. His words make you feel the situation rather than just hear it and his voice is simply intoxicating. Here are the lyrics to this beautiful composition I hope all who read this cherish this song as much as I do...
"All my bags are packed
Im ready to go
Im standin here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin
Its early morn
The taxis waitin
Hes blowin his horn
Already Im so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Theres so many times Ive let you down
So many times Ive played around
I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
Evry place I go, Ill think of you
Evry song I sing, Ill sing for you
When I come back, Ill bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more timeLet me kiss you
Then close your eyes
Ill 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
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
But, Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go"
