Klingt makaber, ist aber gar nicht so gemeint: Falls mich mal das Zeitliche segnen sollte, wäre das eines der Lieder, wenn nicht sogar _das_ Lied, was bei meiner Beisetzung gespielt werden sollte. Weil es so schön ist und so gut auf eine Beerdigung paßt, wie ich finde. Besonders auf meine.

Lisa Loeb, "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 breaking it's early morn
The taxi's waiting he's blowin' his horn
I'm ready 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 tell you now they don't mean a thing

Everyplace I go I'll think of you
Every song I sing I'll 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 let me kiss you
Then close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave you alone
About the times that I won't have to say

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

I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go.

(And I'm) Leaving on a jetplane...

Ich weiß, das Original ist eigentlich von John Denver, aber die Mädchenversion hats mir nunmal angetan. Anyways, we're talking about my funeral here, remember?
