[Verse 1: Lisa Hannigan]
Hush now, don't explain
There ain't nothing to gain
Well, I'm glad you're back
But don't explain

Quiet, baby, don't explain
You know there ain't nothing to gain
Skip that lipstick
And don't explain

[Bridge: Lisa Hannigan]
You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
I am so completely yours
Don't wanna hear nobody chatter
'Cause I know you cheat
Right or wrong, don't matter
When you're with me, sweet

[Verse 2: Damien Rice]
Hush now, don't explain
You are my joy, and you're my pain
My life's yours, love
So don't explain
[Bridge: Damien Rice]
You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
I am so completely yours
Don't wanna hear folks chatter
'Cause I know you cheat
Right or wrong, don't matter
When I'm with you, sweet

[Outro: Lisa Hannigan]
Hush now, don't explain
You know, you're my joy and you're my pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain
