Billie Holiday
Don’t Explain
[Verse]
Hush now, don't explain
Just say you'll remain
I'm glad you're back
Don't explain
Quiet, don't explain
There's nothing to gain
Skip that lipstick
Don't explain

[Chorus]
You know that I love you
And our 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, my sweet

[Refrain]
Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain
[Chorus]
You know that I love you
And our 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, my sweet

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