You Wear It Well Lyrics
You Wear It Well - The Rod Stewart Tribute Band
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 all right
Well I suppose you're thinking
I bet hes sinking
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
Oh 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
Remember them basement parties
Your brothers karate
The all day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Havent left a mark on you
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 tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' 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
When you sat down
And cried on the stairs
You knew it did not cost the earth
But for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire
And you wear it well
Madame onassis got nothing on you
Anyway my coffees 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 I wear it well
I don't object if you call collect
Cos I ain't forgetting
That you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' to get back to you
After all the years I hope
It's the same address
You wear it well
