Billie Holiday - Don't Explain (1944)

Hush now don’t explain
I know you raise Cain
I’m glad you’re back
Don’t explain

Quiet, don’t explain
You mixed with some dame
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
But right and wrong don’t matter when you’re with me sleep

Hush now, don’t explain
You’re my joy and pain
My life’s yours love
Don’t explain

Don't Explain Billie Holiday (03:19)
Hush now, don't explain Just say you'll remain I'm glad your 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 that
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...

If I could have one? Well I would be smart about it and get a box set that way I could have 4 or 5 but it would be in ONE package ;}

Love this woman, but not as much as Ella Fitzgerald, but she was a great singer too. :)

she has a bunch of greatest hits albums that are all great. Lady in Satin is also really good. i think her best songs are For Heavens Sake, Don't Smoke in Bed and Strange Fruit. If you look you should be able to get her entire catalog pretty cheap.
