Lyric Don t Explain

(B. Holiday/A. Herzog, Jr.)

Hush now, don t explain
Just say you ll remain
I m glad you re back
Don t explain

Quiet don t explain
What is there to gain?
Skip that lipstick
Don t explain

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

Hush now, don t explain
You re my joy and pain
My life s yours love
Don t explain
