Francis Albert Sinatra (/sᵻˈnɑːtrə/; Italian: [siˈnaːtra]; December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, and producer who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Italian immigrants, Sinatra began his musical career in the swing era with bandleaders Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. Sinatra found success as a solo artist after he signed with Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "Boddy Soxers". He released his debut album, The Voice of Frank of Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became  one of its best known performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of Form Here to Eternety, with his performance subsequently winning an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. Sinatra released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1995), Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (1956), Come Fly With Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice's n' Easy (1960).    

All of me

Why not take all of me

Can't you see

I'm no good without you

Take my lips

I wanna lose them

Take my arms

I'll never use them

Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry

How can I get along without you

You took the part that one’s was my heart

So why not, why not take all of me

All of me

Come on get all of me

Can't you see

I'm just a mess without you

Take my lips

I wanna lose them

Get a piece of these arms

I'll never use them

Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry

How can I ever make it without you

You know you got the part

Used to be my heart

So why not, why not take all of me.
