Don't Explain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hush now, dont explain
Just say youll remain
I'm glad your back, dont explain
Quiet, dont explain
What is there to gain
Skip that lipstick
Dont explain
You know that I love you
And what endures
All my thoughts of you
For I'm so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, dont matter
When youre with me, sweet
Hush now, dont explain
Youre my joy and pain
My lifes yours love
Dont explain
