Don't explain...
Just to contradict what I just said... But this song is far too doggone beautiful to be ignored.
Lyrics by Billie Holiday.
Hush now, don't explain;
There ain't nothing to gain.
Well, I'm glad you're back,
But don't explain.
Quiet, baby, don't explain;
You know there ain't nothing to gain.
Skip that lipstick,
And don't explain.
You know that I love you,
And what love endures.
All my thoughts are of you,
I am so completely yours.
Don't wanna hear nobody chatter,
?Cause I know you cheat.
Right or wrong, don't matter,
When you're with me, sweet.
Hush now, don't explain;
You are my joy, and you're my pain.
My life's yours, love
So don't explain.
You know that I love you
And what love endures.
All my thoughts are of you,
I am so completely yours.
Don't wanna hear folks chatter,
?Cause I know you cheat.
Right or wrong, don't matter,
When I'm with you, sweet.
Hush now, don't explain;
You know, you're my joy and you're my pain.
My life's yours, love,
Don't explain.
