Lyrics All Or Nothing At All - Live At The Lincoln Center, NY, USA / 2009 - Kurt Elling

All or nothing at all
Half a love never appealed to me
If your heart never would yield to me
Then I′d rather have nothing at all
All or nothing at all

If it's love there is no in between
Why begin then cry for something that might have been
No, I′d rather have nothing at all

So please don't bring your lips so close to my cheek
Don't smile or I′ll be lost beyond recall
That look in your eyes and the touch of your lips
Makes me weak and my heart may grow dizzy and fall

If I fell under the spell of your call
There′s every chance that I'd be caught in the undertow
So you see I′ve gotta say no, no
All or nothing at all

So please don't bring those luscious lips so close to my cheek
Would you smile? I′ll be lost beyond recall
That look in your eyes and the touch of your lips
Makes me weepy and weak and my heart may grow dizzy and fall

I fell under the spell of your call
There's every chance that I′d be caught in the undertow
So you see I've gotta say no, no
All or nothing at all, all or nothing at all, all or nothing at all
