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

Quiet, don't explain
Tell me what is there to gain?
Skip that lipstick
No, no, 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 when I hear folks chatter
'Cause I know you cheat
Oh, the right or wrong don't matter, honey
When you're with me, sweet

Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and you're pain
My life, oh, is yours, love
So don't explain

I said, my life is yours, love
So don't explain
You don't have to explain
