Everything's Out In The Open - Johnnie Taylor

Once upon a time we were a unit, we were a pair

But it’s like it’s all over now darling

It’s all out in the open

No more hiding, no more lies

And no more disappointments

Everything’s out in the open yeah

There is nothing left to hide

I thought we had a Garden of Eden

And we did before he came along

Before the fruits in the midst of his garden

Became the fruits that turned you on

Before God, we were joined together

Before a judge, we were taken apart

Before I would deliver the papers

You and him had made a brand new start

Everything’s out in the open, yeah

There is nothing left to hide

All the vows have been broken

But I feel the same way inside

You see just like Adam, you were my Eve

The only girl in the world for me

And just like that old story

Once again you’ve been deceived

Before God, we were joined together

Before a judge, we were taken apart

Before I would deliver the papers

You and him had made a brand new start

Everything’s out in the open, yeah

And there’s nothing left to hide

All the vows have been broken

And I feel the same way inside

Everything’s out in the open, oh open

Well, and there’s nothing left to hide

All the vows have been broken

And I feel the same way inside

Everything’s out in the open, yeah
