๐ Lyrics
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 he's 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, oh my
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate
The all-day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Haven't left a mark on you
But 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
Oh, since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
Gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
You sat down and cried on the stairs
You know it cost the earth, but for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire
And you wear it well
Ooh, Madame Onassis got nothing on you
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told
I gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes down, and you're home all alone
Think of me and try not to laugh
And you 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 tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' to get back to you
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
Said, after all this, I hope it's the same address
Said, since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
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 he's 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, oh my
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate
The all-day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Haven't left a mark on you
But 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
Oh, since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
Gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
You sat down and cried on the stairs
You know it cost the earth, but for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire

Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
Said, after all this, I hope it's the same address
Said, since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
