Dont Explain by Billie Holiday Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 1945

[Chorus]
Hush now, don't explain
Just say you'll remain
I'm glad you're back
Don't explain

[Bridge]
Quiet, don't explain
What is there to gain
Skip that lipstick
Don't explain

[Verse]
You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
For I'm so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, don't matter
When you're with me, sweet
[Chorus]
Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain

[Verse]
You know that I love you
And what love endures
Nothing rates above you
For I'm so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, don't matter
When you're with me, sweet

[Chorus]
Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain
