Don’t Explain Songtext
von Abbey Lincoln

Hush now, don′t explain
Just say you'll remain
I′m glad you're back, don't explain
Hush now, don′t explain
You′re my joy and pain
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
Hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, no matter
When you're with me, sweet


Hush now, don′t explain
Just say you'll remain
I′m glad you're back, don't explain

Hush now, don′t explain
Just say you′ll remain
I'm glad you′re back, don't explain
Hush now, don′t explain
You're my joy and pain
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, no matter
When you're with me, sweet


Hush now, don′t explain
Just say you′ll remain
I'm glad you′re back, don't explain
