Verse:
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 save.
 
Chorus:
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.
