“Don’t Explain” is written by Billie Holiday and Arthur Herzog. Holiday performed it live many times, during 1956 and 1958.
Faithful to one of the main themes of her songs, Billie Holiday talks about love ; this moving love song deals with the relationship between a woman who talks to her boyfriend...
[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
