'The Expressions' began with the encouragement of Jeff Silverman & Leon Michels, in 2004. Upon foundation of Truth & Soul Records they called Lee in, to record the single that became Do You Love Me (Like You Say You Do) / Honey Dove - the result was so promising, the band was born.

Fast forward almost two years & The Expressions (feat' Lee Fields), have successfully created a unique and personal sound that can hold court with the bands they set out to emulate. However, what was created in the process goes beyond just a carbon copy of a sweet soul music. The music has developed into a deeply soulful mix of old and new. The formula stayed the same but the style has been adapted for the ears of people who didn’t grow up on Al Green or Sam Cooke. Elements of modern music have crept their way into the mix to create something entirely fresh and unique. The Expressions have surely lived up to the name, each song they make is choked full of raw emotion that permeates deep through your ear hole straight to the soul.

It's All Over
Lee Fields & The Expressions Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is it all over
Ain’t no sense of lying we both know
Listen my story
It’s been 3 long years since I have lost my mind
I never thought I could be so bright
Try to live out fantasy
When all the time girl you were making a foul of me
Hope you will find what you are looking for

I go my way you go yours
Ain’t no such time up keep holding on
We both know the feeling is gone
Is it all over

Ain’t no sense of lying we both know
Is it all over
Ain’t no sense of lying we both know
My money has been my the lie we are living has become
A pretty face cold as ice
A lying tone has destroyed my life
I wish somebody will tell me what to do
I believe my stay with you
Make no sense try to keep holding on
We both know the feeling is gone
Is gone gone
Is it all over
Ain’t no sense of lying we both know

Is it all over
Ain’t no sense of lying we both know
Is it all over
Ain’t no sense of lying we both know
We both know we both know
We both know we both know
Ain’t no sense try to hold on
The feeling is done

Ain’t no sense in trying to your way
Is gone gone
