[Verse 1]
Hush now, don't explain
There ain't nothin' to gain
I'm glad that you're back
Don't explain
Quiet, baby, don't explain
There is nothing to gain
Skip that, the lipstick
Don't explain
[Bridge]
You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
For I'm so completely yours
Don't wanna hear folks chatter
'Cause I know you cheat
Right and wrong don't matter
When you're with me, my sweet
[Verse 2]
Hush, now, don't explain
Don't you know
You're my joy and you're my pain?
My life is yours, love
Don't explain
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
All my thoughts are of you
For I'm so completely yours
Don't wanna hear nobody chatter
'Cause I know you cheat
Right and wrong don't matter
When you're with me, my sweet
[Outro]
Hush, now, don't explain
You're my joy and you're my pain
My life is yours, love
Don't explain
