All of Me - Sidney Bechet, Sidney Bechet and His Blue Note Jazzmen, Jimmy Archey

You took my kisses and you took my love

You taught me how to care

Am I to be just the remnant of

A one-sided love affair?

All you took, I gladly gave

There’s nothing left for me to say

All of me

Why not take all of me?

Can’t you see

I’m no good without you?

Take my lips

I want to lose them

Take my arms

I’ll never use them

Your goodbye

Left me with eyes that cry

How can I

Go on, dear, without you?

You took the part

That once was my heart

So why not take all of me?

All of me

Why not take all of me?

Oh, can’t you see

I’m no good without you?

Take my lips

I want to lose them

Take my arms

I’ll never use them

Your goodbye

Left me with eyes that cry

How can I

Go on, dear, without you?

You took the part

That once was my heart

So why not take all of me?
