I had nothin' to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
I've been meanin' to phone ya, 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 thinkin', "I bet he's sinkin'
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me"
Though, I ain't beggin' or losin' 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 'n' roll shows?
Them homesick blues and the radical views
Haven't left a mark on you
You wear it well
A little outta time, but I don't mind
But I ain't forgettin' that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryna get a letter through
ย
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
And you wear it well
Madame Onassis got nothin' on you, no, no
Anyway, my coffee is cold, and I'm gettin' 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'll wear it well
I don't object if you call collect
'Cause I ain't forgettin' that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryna get back to you
ย
I love ya, I love ya, I love ya, I love ya
Oh, yeah
After all this, hope it's the same address
Since you've been gone, it's hard to carry on, oh, no
Oh, yeah
