Rod Stewart - You wear it well lyrics

Your rating:

I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
I've been meaning to phone you, but from Minnesota
Hell, it's been a very long time

You wear it well
A little old-fashioned, but that's alright

Well, I suppose you're thinking, I bet he's sinking
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
Though I ain't begging or losing my head
I sure do want you to know, that

You wear it well
there ain't a lady in the land so fine, oh my

Remember their basement parties, your brothers' karate
The all-day rock-and-roll shows
The homesick blues and the radical views
Haven't left a mark on you

(Chorus)
You wear it well
A little out of time but I don't mind
But, I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even trying
Now I'm eating my heart out 
Trying to get a letter through

Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on

I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town 
And you sat down and cried on the stairs
You knew it didn't cost the earth but for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire

You wear it well
Madame Onassis got nothing on you; no, no

Well now my coffee is cold and I'm getting told
That I gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone
Think of me and try not to laugh, and 

(Chorus 2)
I'll wear it well
I don't object if you call collect 
'Cause I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even trying
Now I'm eating my heart out
Trying to get back to you
